Asus has been working on a Google Android tablet since for quite a while now – at least since we were shown a prototype in January at CES. Now DigiTimes is reporting that the tablet will be on display at the Computex trade show in June, with a possible launch date as soon as late July.
The Asus Eee Pad is expected to be powered by NVIDIA’s Tegra chipset, which features a low power ARM-based processor and a graphics core capable of handling HD video and 3D graphics as well as Adobe Flash. Unlike certain other tablets (cough, iPad) the Eee Pad will almost certainly have at least one USB port for connecting peripherals and an integrated webcam.
According to DigiTimes, the tablet could run about $480 to $510. And that’s including a subsidy from mobile broadband providers, although it’s not entirely clear if that’s the global price or just the price the Eee Pad is expected to sell for in Taiwan.
