RIM announced that they'll be selling the PlayBook starting at $499 (available mid April), and Samsung will begin selling their 10.1 inch tablet starting at $499 as well (available in June). It looks like we finally have a game folks!
And this can only mean good things for us. Color me excited!
Starting prices for tablets:
Apple iPad 2: $499
RIM PlayBook: $499
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1: $499
Motorola Xoom: $599
HP TouchPad: ???
(Note: I know there's varying specs between each of these products, but I'm more interested in the price of entry for a consumer who is new to tablets.)
Discussion about
It's interesting to see tablet makers are starting to competitively price their goods with Apple.
Couldn't agree more, till few weeks back there was no pricing on any of these and I am guessing they all were waiting to see the iPad2 pricing. Although they were probably already pricing it around $499, which is definitely a sweet spot for a tablet. I am really looking forward to the Touchpad and next generation Xoom whenever it comes out.
