Motorola Xoom
Its biggest strength, however, is also its biggest challenge - Android 3.0 is after all not a finished product, so one does not really know how well it will perform.
There is also the question of how many apps it will come along, as indications are that the apps in the existing Android Market will not work perfectly with it.
Samsung Galaxy Tab
It will pack in a dual core NVIDIA Tegra processor and even though its screen is expected to remain at its current seven inch size, its resolution could be almost doubled to 2048 x 1200 with a Super AMOLED display to boot. Round that off with an 8 megapixel shooter on the rear and this could be a multimedia behemoth that fits into your coat pocket.
And yes, it should be running Android 3.0 as well.
BlackBerry PlayBook
It's a professional grade 7-inch tablet, but it definitely has a fun side. The BlackBerry PlayBook sports a fast dual-core processor and a multitasking-friendly interface, as well as full Flash support and dual HD video cameras. It also supports support for Flash and HTML browsing, phenomenal multi-tasking ability, and of course, completes compatibility with BlackBerry Enterprise Server and the ability to pair easily with BlackBerry handsets. A whole new interface based on the QNX OS should make it fun to use as well.
Acer Iconia Tab A500
Coming to Verizon Wireless with blazing 4G LTE connectivity, Acer’s Iconia Tab A500 is a 10-inch Android 3.0 tablet that could give the Xoom a run for its money. It features HDMI and USB ports and both rear (5-MP) and front (2-MP) cameras. The Social Jogger app for flipping through Twitter and Facebook updates are going to be worth watching. Acer's Clear.Fi media sharing software is also going to be pre-installed.
HP TouchPad
Boasting an impressive list of features—including a 1.2-GHz dual-core processor, a front-facing camera, and Beats Audio, HP’s TouchPad is a strong contender running webOS 3.0. The tablet tightly integrates social networking throughout multiple apps. You can even share URLs between webOS phones and the tablet with a tap.
HTC Flyer
The HTC Flyer is out to prove the pen is not dead. HTC’s innovative 7-inch tablet (running Android 2.4) lets you take notes while recording audio as well as annotate almost anything. A 1.5-GHz processor runs a revamped 3D Sense interface and provideds plenty of pep for playing OnLive games between meetings.

The 10“ capacitive multi-touch screen at 1024 × 600, use the technology which is done by Pixel Qi, which deactivates the LCD backlight when ambient light is sufficient, saving battery and tired considerably less light. The dual core nVidia Tegra 2 at 1GHz will run the tablet which has the capability of playing 1080p video.
This is an interesting alternative to iPad.

Lenovo and gives us hints of what gives this model by using the word “hybrid” in its name. And is that U1 is neither more nor less than that: a hybrid between a tablet and a notebook.

Microsoft Courier
This project of which little is known yet and is not expected, at least, until the third or fourth quarter, if it ever comes to be more than one concept and would be far more than an alternative to iPad. The most interesting are the two folding screens, mimicking a book, which would, among other things; it was much easier and convenient to carry.
