Google Nexus Tablet - the first Google tablet

Google has worked with HTC and Samsung to promote their own mobile OS (Android) to smartphones, and now it seems it wants to come strong on the tablet market segment. According to statements by the Executive Director of Google, Eric Schmidt, the online giant is preparing a tablet that will compete with Amazon Kindle Fire.

Thus, Google tablet aims to provide outstanding performance in a compact body with 7 inch touch screen, while maintaining a competitive price under $ 200.

It is rumored that the Google tablet will be available under the name "Nexus Tablet", which urges us to believe that the manufacturer will be the South Korean company Samsung, which made ​​the latest Google smartphones - Nexus Nexus S and Galaxy.

The operating system will could be the last iteration of Android's, most likely the future 4.x ICS

Although this is the logical step, Google prefers to keep us in suspense. They do not confirm anything officially. But we still have the Eric Schmidt statement, which is heavy.

If the rumors will prove true, Google tablet could appear on the market in about six months.
