When Google originally posted proof-of-concept images for proposed tablet applications of their Chromium cloud-based operating system, they apparently meant business. This week, in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam said that they and Google are actively developing a new tablet device to compete with the iPad.
"We're working on tablets together, for example," McAdam said. "We're looking at all the things Google has in its archives that we could put on a tablet to make it a great experience."
He went on to discuss the lead AT&T currently holds over Verizon in the tablet market, powering both the iPad and Amazon's Kindle eReader, saying that the company was able to launch their products faster. Still, McAdam believes Verizon can catch up with the rollout of their new network later this year.
Neither Verizon nor Google would elaborate on McAdam's comments; however, he says the carrier's latest mobile products will be ready to show early next year.
Won't take much. All they need to do is charge a normal price for a tablet (like $300-350) and it will sell far more than the iPad has. $500 is a complete rip off.
