Is Google set to design their own tablet?

If the minds at Google had it their way they’d probably take over the world. It was just announced that the Google empire is about to expand by adding an online tablet store along with future tablets that they will be co-branding. According to the Washington Post, Google will be selling their tablets directly to consumers and will also be imitating the Apple/Amazon model.  Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right? Furthermore, USA Today states that the company will be running its Android operating systems on these devices which will undoubtedly give them an advantage.

With Google having Android features on their own devices, this could be another deciding factor for individuals trying to decipher whether or not to get a tablet or laptop. Google’s tablets will bear the trademark colorful Google logo and will be manufactured by companies such as Asus, Samsung, and possibly Motorola Mobility which Google purchased for 12.5 billion last year. This will be Google’s first foray into the world of tablets. Manufacturers such as Apple and Amazon have found success with their own respective tablet brands. Google’s entry clearly spells competition.

Hopefully it’ll fare better than the Nexus One, Google’s co-branded smart phone that was sold through a Google website back in 2010 according to USA Today. Google shelved the endeavor after only a few months. It’s full steam ahead with their latest endeavor however. PC Magazine reports that Google could be waiting to release its tablet around the release of the next version of Android which has been anticipated to happen in the middle of the year. Either way, consumers have now been informed, and the competition between tablet manufacturers is set to heat up.

Let’s just hope the tablets themselves don’t do the same.
