The tech world is in a tablet frenzy right now, primarily fueled by the now credible rumor that Apple will unveil a tablet this month. An Australian publication, Smarthouse, has started a rumor that Google will soon unveil a Chrome OS tablet to compete with Apple’s upcoming tablet. Needless to say, there’s rumor based upon rumor here; however, it makes perfect sense considering Google’s assault on Apple.
Smarthouse reports that a Chrome OS Google tablet has been in development 18 months and it will be manufactured by HTC, the company that manufactures the upcoming Google Nexus One phone.
If you’re in Apple’s camp, Google’s camp or both, this sounds like good news because consumers will benefit from competitive pricing.
Maybe this year the Mac dude on television will be targeting an Googler and not the stodgy PC guy.
