Upcoming Tablet computers launched at 2011 CES

2011 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas has introduced a new wave of innovative, thin screen touch Tablet PCs and devices in electronic reading market.

Some of these tablets will allow you to surf the Web, watch movies and play casual games without the need to rely on a bulky laptop and its traditional keyboard. Other gadgets focus on features such as reading for long periods of time without killing the batteries and without eye strain, e.g. the Kindle 3 G wireless device playback.

While the Apple iPad tablet computer is still the market leader in the emerging market for tablets, this probably won't be for long, because of its price. Analysts believe the new Tablet from Apple to be launched around March / April may cost $ 700 to $ 1,000 and will probably be a fully functional computer, rather than a more passive device for reading books and watching movies. That could help to justify the higher price tag.

In contrast, the design of Tablet unveiled by Freescale in 2011 these in Las Vegas could sell for as little as $200.

The launch of the Apple iPad 2, Steven a. Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft, showed off the coast at 2011 CES a new Tablet from Hewlett-Packard PC running Windows 7 with a color touch screen displaying books and videos.

The 2011 CES, Lenovo (the Chinese computer manufacturer) showed an innovative tablet PC called the Lenovo IdeaPad U1 hybrid notebook. It seems to be an ordinary laptop, until the screen pop out of its shell and it becomes a slender, bright touchscreen tablet running a Linux-based operating system.

Spring Design, a Taiwanese start-up, showed off the coast at 2011 CES device of dual screen e-book, Alex e-Reader, which has a 3.5-inch color screen and a black and white screen 6 inches. This reading device, which should come out in February 2011 and cost $349, could display hybrids of book and video.
