Engadget is reporting that Motorola is hard at work (pun so intended) on a tablet for the enterprise. Motorola plans to build the “first physical embodiment defining Android for the Enterprise”. It seems the tablet will launch with Gingerbread and it’ll enter the beta-testing phase this October. I understand this product won’t be aimed at the average consumer but launching a tablet running Gingerbread almost a year from now is like announcing a phone running Eclair — makes no sense. Anyhow, the tablet will feature:
- 1.3MP front-facing camera, 8MP rear-facing camera “with illumination and aiming” for barcode scanning
- Dual-core 1GHz OMAP 4 CPU
- 1GB RAM, 8GB ROM
- 7-inch LCD display
- Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi, and USB connectivity
- Battery should support five and a half hours of streaming video
- Rugged build able to survive four foot drop, extreme temperatures, excessive dust, and splashing water
So, even though this is not aimed at us Android enthusiasts, do you see yourself buying this tablet?
