Sony S-1, S-2 tablets later this year

While the market is flooded with Android tablets Sony plans to take a different path with two entertainment tablets, the S1 and S2. To lay hands on these tablets, users will have to wait till the end of the year when Sony plans to start shipping them around the world.
Sony S1 is a 9.4 inch tablet with a curved top, much like a folded magazine, which makes it easy to handle for longer hours. The S2 is a dual screen clamshell design tablet aimed particularly at people looking for both mobility and usability. Both devices use Nvidia Tegra 2 processors and run a customised version of Android 3.0 operating system.

Nook Color becomes a tablet

Barnes and Noble is coming up with updates with which Nook Color ereader would act very much like a tablet.

Nook Color, an e-reader, could soon be converted into a tablet computer with a forthcoming update of its software, Barnes and Noble has indicated.
