Well, that didn’t take long. The hoopla surrounding the Apple iPad has died down somewhat, so naturally, the question becomes, who’s next? If the New York Times is to be believed, Google is next in line for tablet glory.
The paper reported Sunday that Google will soon start selling “its version of a slate computer.” The device would be “an e-reader that would function like a computer,” the Times said.
Apparently, Google CEO Eric Schmidt was talking about the company’s tablet at a recent party. It would be Android-based, but few other details have emerged. Google is reportedly operating in “stealth mode” with only a few publishers, the Times said.
The paper also said that Nokia is working on a slate/e-reader of its own, as are Microsoft and HP.
