The rumors call a new tablet to go to the party that manufacturers are organizing this year as far as launches of these devices is concerned. And these rumors point high: nothing less than Amazon would be involved in the development of a personal screen with which to compete in the fashion market for this 2011.
From Engadget echoes an article published on the site GDGT, which indicate that during next summer could see the light a tablet mentored by the famous online store. And we say sponsored because it would be manufactured by one of the leading companies, the Korean Samsung. Without talking about a more specific date or a price that adjusts to what the Amazon tablet will really cost , Peter Rojas, the person responsible for the rumor, has ventured to anticipate a couple of features that this device could incorporate.
To begin with, it would be a terminal with a seven-inch screen. As you know, if you are interested in this segment, this format became popular with the Samsung Galaxy Tab, the first real alternative to the iPad of Apple, which was later continued by other terminals such as HTC Flyer (whose launch is imminent). Given this size, it seems that Amazon seeks to launch a manageable item that is easily transportable. Remember that during the presentation of the Samsung Galaxy Tab, the terminal was discovered after the event driver took it out of the inside pocket of his jacket.
On the other hand, the tablet of Amazon manufacture of Samsung would serve as a common apex of a series of services that the company has been developing for months. With the common axis of the Android ecosystem, this device would combine the signature of the firm (electronic books) with the recently opened application platform for Google terminals (the Amazon AppStore, with downloadable content for Android) and the music service in the cloud that has been accessible for a few weeks.
