And Now it’s Google’s Turn- Android Tablet on Verizon in the Talks

Is Google getting ready to give stiff competition to Apple’s Ipad?

is this how google tablet will look?

Gadget freaks all over the world have been speculating over this issue-whether or not Google is going to launch its own tablet in competition to Apple’s hugely successful Ipad. The rumors have become more strife since the confirmatory statement made by the Verizon Wireless CEO, Lowell Mcadam in a recent interview. The CEO gave indication about the development of an Android powered tablet computer in partnership with Google.

The liaison between Verizon, Google and Android was last seen in Motorola’s ace phone Droid which successfully implemented the Android operating system. Incidentally, Droid too was launched to break the monopoly of Apple’s iPhone series. Given the success of this liaison, there is a very negligible chance of the corporate giants not repeating their winning formula again in the form of 3G Google Android Tablet. This growing partnership between Verizon and Google also finds base in the fact that Verizon is the largest wireless carrier of U.S.

There have been no confirmations or details released about the launch, manufacture, applications, design or any other specification. However, speculations are being rife over this upcoming gadget from Google. Right from its look to its updated applications, everything is being discussed and argued over. But one thing is for sure, if Google wants to walk neck to neck with Ipad it would surely have to work on following areas

• Streaming video options
• E-reader solutions
• Touch friendly OS skin
• Flash and air support

Although the biggest difference between Google Android Tablet computer and Apple Ipad will still be their operating system and the consequent application changes. Google follows an open source platform in the form of Android as compared to the more rigid operating system of Apple. Google allows more freedom to users with third party download and support for Adobe Flash. Incidentally, Ipad has been condemned on these two points only.

Since the unavailability of any other details and release date for Android run Google Tablet on Verizon, there is minuscule amount of uncertainty about the development of such a tablet in the near future. All one can do right now is wait and watch for this revolutionary gadget to arrive in the market!
