Falling in line with recent rumor and speculation across the blogosphere, a report by the Wall Street Journal notes that Google is readying the release of a tablet for some time this year.
The various different launchers available for Android devices certainly go great lengths to improve the customization and functionality of the world's most widely-used mobile platform.
Despite all the criticism regarding its one-size-fits-none form factor, Samsung has sold over 5 million units of the phone-plus-tablet Galaxy Note. Almost everything about the device has controversy surrounding it, whether it’s the huge 5.3” 720p Super AMOLED HD display or the inclusion of a capacitive stylus; it’s really a love it or hate it kind of thing.
As you may have already gathered, the latest iteration of Android (4.0.4) has begun trickling out to the international version of Samsung's Galaxy Nexus and Nexus S devices, among others.
With beautiful typography, continuous horizontal layouts and large thumbnails, Window Phone 7’s “Metro UI” is arguably the best looking mobile operating system in the market today. It provides a completely original user-experience which focuses more on information than apps.

But, is Microsoft's unique approach to tablets going to be enough to even get a foot in the door of the tablet market? After all, it isn't even so much a tablet market as an iPad market; Apple created this market, and are doing a great job at maintaining a firm grip on it. But, while nothing will kill the iPad anytime soon, it is possible for a product to gain decent share in an Apple-dominated market. Just look at Android.
From day-to-day, we see and hear many rumors and supposed 'inside information' regarding unconfirmed, unannounced, and unspecified products. Some are plausible, and make sense, if only vaguely, whilst others seem somewhat far-fetched.
