Tablet computer 12

Research in Motion
The BlackBerry PlayBook is a tablet computer announced in September 2010 which runs the BlackBerry Tablet OS.The OS is based on the QNX system that Research in Motion acquired in early 2010. Delivery to developers and enterprise customers is expected in October 2010.

Google
Google's linux-based Android operating system has been targeted by manufacturers for the tablet space following its success on smartphones due to its open nature and support for low-cost ARM systems much like Apple's iOS. In 2010, there have been numerous announcements of such tablets.However, much of Android's tablet initiative comes from manufacturers as Google primarily focuses its development on smartphones and restricts the App Market from non-phone devices. There is, moreover, talk of tablet support from Google coming to its web-centric Chrome OS.Some vendors such as Motorola  and Lenovo are delaying deployment of their tablet computers until 2011, after Android is reworked to include more tablet features.

HP
HP's webOS: Following the acquisition of Palm, Inc. by HP there have been long standing rumors of the cancellation of the Windows 7 HP Slate in favor of one running webOS.However, recently the HP Slate was in fact confirmed by HP and appeared on the website for a short amount of time before being taken down.
