Sony, Announces two Android tablet computers



Apple already has their insanely popular Ipads and Ipad 2's on the market, so it's not very surprising that other companies want in on the tablet market. Sony has announced two new Android tablet computers codenamed S1 and S2.

S1 will have WiFi, 3G and 4G (for those in a 4G area). Also, it will have a front and a back camera, allowing you to take photos of yourself or of things right in front of you, while still looking at the screen; the Ipad 2 also has this, but it's expensive - maybe this'll beat the price? The screen on S1 is 9.4 inches. It can also be used as a remote for some of the other Sony devices out there.

S2 has a 5.5 inch screen, a (1024x480) resolution and can stream video and play games. The controls on S2 are on the back for gaming; these are touch sensitive, so they aren't really buttons - kind of like the PS3 touch control to turn it on and off.

Each of these devices can connect to the Playstation Network and download things like Playstation Classics (PSone games) and other games. These tablets currently have no price announced, but I am expecting it won't be too long before the price becomes known. These are supposed to be  released in Fall of this year, 2011.
