Google's Tablet to hit World Markets by July end

Tech World  has been speculating about the 2012 release of the Google Tablet for months. Now, sources close to this  project say the iPad competitor will debut in July.
Technology news website The Verge reports that Google is pushing back the tablet’s previously expected  May release, with a view to cut prices. Manufacturers are working to bring the $249 price tag down to $199 or less.

Two and a half years later after its debacle with  Google Nexus One phones by partnering with  Verizon, Google is back into focus —this time with a tablet PC. This first one will be a co-branded (with Asustek Computer of Taiwan) Android device that is expected to become available near the end of this summer—late July or August.

 Lower price will help Google compete with Amazon’s Kindle Fire — which is now leading the 7-inch tablet market with its $199 model. Amazon sold over five million units of its tablet last quarter. The Barnes & Noble Nook Color Tablet — also running the Android operating system — is priced at $169 for the 7-inch touchscreen version.
By contrast, Apple is high-end, selling one of the most expensive tablets on the market with its lowest-priced 9.5-inch iPad (16GB Wi-Fi-only) costing $499. 

The 7-inch Google Tablet will run on the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich OS with a Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor. It is  speculating that the delayed release could be due to Google’s nearly finished Android 5.0 Jelly Bean update, which Google could be waiting for before it releases its first tablet.

Once released, Google plans to sell its tablets through its own online store, according to last week’s WSJ report. So ,we can expect a tough competiton to Apple Ipad’s Market dominance with the emergence of tablets unveiled by Tech Industry Titans (Google ‘s Android 4.0 Tablet & Microsoft’s Windows 8 powered tablet in the last quarters of FY12.
