Tablet Wars Heat Up
Google and Verizon are about to jump into the Tablet game:
Launch is pegged for Black Friday on November 26, and apparently the plan is to offer the device for extremely cheap or free on subsidy, which makes sense -- it is just a browser, after all, and "free" sounds mighty nice compared to the iPad's $499 entry point. (Of course, you'll undoubtedly be tied to a Verizon contract, but we'll just let that slide for now.)
The subsidized PC model didn't work, but it's worked well for phones - I think Apple is about to get some competition...
