Amazon tablets to land on this October

There is been a lot of chatter about the Amazon tablets and a new report from theWall Street Journal suggests one could land before October. This fits in nicely with what we have heard before and it may also be going up against a new iPad at that time.

There is no solid information on what the Amazon tablets will be called or what these devices will look like but previous reports indicate we could see a 10-inch device and a 7-inch tablet in the not-too-distant future. The larger one is supposedly code-named "Hollywood" and this would likely include built-in access to the company’s streaming video, which would be a first for mobile devices.

We’ve also heard that the Amazon tablets will be using NVIDIA Tegra chips as its processors. NVIDIA has continued to tell us that its quad-core Kal-El chip will be in a commercial product in the August time-frame and that could fit in well with this latest report about the Amazon tablets.
