Tegra 2 is expected to become the heart of many potential “Ipad killers”. The ARM based System-on-a-Chip solution sports 1GHz dual-core ARM Cortex A9 processor, which is actually newer than the single-core Apple A4 processor found in Ipad. When Nvidia demonstrated a prototype of a Tegra 2 tablet it revealed that the unit had 1GB RAM, which is a lot more than competing products, e.g. Apple Ipad.
As we all know hardware isn’t everything in a tablet and even if dual USB ports and a web camera are good features that Ipad lacks the first judgments were that the design wasn’t quite up to Ipad standards but still good for a pre-production model. The 8.9″ widescreen display sports 1024×600 pixel resolution.
Nvidia demonstrated the Tegra 2 tablet with Android OS and this is a combination we expect to see from many tablet makers.
