Motorola Co-CEO Sanjay Jha has said today that their much-anticipated Android tablet will be released in early 2011, slightly later than most expected.
Says Jha: "Just as Droid was competitive I think with iPhone, we want to make sure that any tablet that we deliver is competitive in the marketplace. We will only deliver that when that occurs. Hopefully that’s early next year."
Sources close to the project (via Bloomberg) say the tablet will be around 10 inches, just like the rival iPad.
The upcoming tablet will have a TV service built-in, marketed with Verizon.
Motorola's tablet will feature at least Android 2.2 (and possibly 3.0), meaning Adobe Flash playback will be native, giving it another feature not available on the iPad.
