Yes…!!! Finally “Amazon” is set to launch its well
rumored Android powered tablet to break down Apple’s dominancy on tablet
market. Most likely, Amazon would like to launch this tablet in upcoming
October. Amazon is not the very first company that has plans for beat Apple in
tablets market on the bases of fewer prices. Lenovo CEO Yang Yuanquing has
already told the media about their upcoming tablet that would be able to
beat Apple’s iPad on price point
reduction bases.
Amazon's tablet could be priced at
$300 or lower, significantly less than the base-level $500 iPad.
Like Apple, Amazon is also in the
business of selling e-books, streaming movies and digital music. The more
tablets it has in users' hands, the more e-books it can sell to them -- which
is where Amazon is hoping to make even more money. This is the main reason
Amazon is willing to sell hardware at a loss.
Several Android tablets have been
released this year, which may too heavy, too expensive or just not quite there.
That has kept many software developers from creating apps for Android tablets,
which causes even more consumers to choose the iPad.
Google doesn't make an exact count
of tablet-optimized apps available, but most educated guesses place it in the
low three figures. Apple has more than 120,000 apps for its tablet. A
blockbuster tablet from Amazon would change things, creating a serious incentive
for tablet app developers to work on both platforms.
