After being announced way back in April, and teased by CEO Michael Dell just recently, the Dell Looking Glass tablet is set to launch in the "next few weeks", according to The Wall Street Journal. They spoke to Dell's own Greater China President, Amit Midha, who confirmed that the tablet was coming along with several other tablet devices, including a 10-inch model. He also said that Dell was planning on using both Android and Windows for its tablets and is looking into Chrome OS as well. As for the Looking Glass, the specs (as released in April) are:
- Nvidia's Tegra 2 processor
- Android 2.1
- 800x480 resolution 7-inch screen
- Optional TV tuner
- 4GB each of ROM and RAM
- microSD card slot (up to 32GB card)
- 1.3 MP front-facing camera
So, add the Looking Glass onto the pile of Android tablets we are expecting this fall. Toss in the recently announced PlayBook by RIM and leaked word of the PalmPad (set for early 2011), and the tablet apocalypse is fully upon us. [Wall Street Journal]
