You can't help but wonder what they all would have done if the iPAD flopped? At least 20 new tablets could be found at Computex.
ARM Holdings, the maker of processing cores popular in Android devices, estimates there will be about 40 tablet devices just using Arm-based processors this year. Android tablets were on display at Arm's private showroom: Foxconn's 10" N928-1, the 7"Lifepad by Prowave, and Malata with a 10" touchscreen.
WonderMedia Technologies showed off a range of new tablets based on its PRIZM SoC and Android. Tzumu Lin, President and CEO, is already predicting segmentation in tablets: "There's clearly a large and growing interest in the tablet form factor, but what we're seeing now is a rising consumer demand for some diversity in size, shape, style and price."
