Sony (SNE) will join the tablet PC competition this fall, the company said Tuesday. The company's official announcement about its Sony Tablet described the device as delivering the perfect combination of hardware, content and network with seamless usability for a high-quality, engaging entertainment experience.
Still, the tablet, which will come in two models, is not terribly unlike others which have come to market. It runs on the Android 3.0 operating system, will connect to the Web via WiFi and 3G/4G signals, and is designed to run rich media -- i.e., video content. There are some differences in evidence, however. While the S1, with its 9.4-inch display, will resemble most tablets, the S2 will feature dual 5.5-inch displays and can be folded in half.
Sony's new offerings will compete with products from Samsung, Dell (DELL), Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) and of course, Apple (AAPL), to name a few. Even China-based PC firm Lenovo is rumored to be nearing the launch of a tablet PC. Lenovo's product will begin to crowd the tablet market in the People's Republic, which has the largest numbers of Internet users and wireless subscribers in the world.
The Sony tablets will reach retailers just before the holiday sales season.
