Wired: "Tablets haven’t been this hot since Moses came down from Mount Sinai."

If I may butcher a line from Spider Man, it would appear as though with great power comes a great deal of interest from other manufacturers to get their own devices out the door. To that end Wired has created "...an overview of some interesting tablets we expect — or hope — to see this year." Among the contenders is a Google/Verizon offering, an Acer device expected in a couple of weeks, a Dell/AT&T device slated for later this summer, and reported other offerings by Sony, HP, and even RIM. Check out the line up at Wired.

As for me, I'd like to hold out for an Android powered device but the iPad's initial success and sleek Apple designs are just too strong to resist and therefore... me too please!

Google's Schmidt Tells Party Goers That Google Will Challenge The iPad

The NYTimes is reporting that Eric Schmidt of Google fame has eluded to a Google Android based tablet to rival the iPad. This probably shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone but the interesting talk that revolves around the Google slate is that it is rumored to support Adobe Flash, something that Apple has refused to do and that will have many developers heaving deep sighs of relief.
Eric E. Schmidt, chief executive of Google, told friends at a recent party in Los Angeles about the new device, which would exclusively run the Android operating system. People with direct knowledge of the project — who did not want to be named because they said they were unauthorized to speak publicly about the device — said the company had been experimenting in “stealth mode” with a few publishers to explore delivery of books, magazines and other content on a tablet.
 I, for one, am likely to want to give the iPad a try but will definitely be waiting to see what Google's offering is! I truly do love my HTC Dream and would not trade it for an iPhone, ever!
