HP Topaz and Opal, two tablets webOS appear as a render

A few weeks left for February 9, when we quote to learn about new products webOS, but unfortunately for companies, the filtering work hard to uncover the surprise early. This time it is not netbooks. The first thing we have to tell you is that there are two tablets, and the image that introduce the story belongs, presumably, to the model by the name of Topaz, and the truth is we do not know if it's the final name or internal code .

With 9 inches, the tablet Topaz home with the information we had, particularly in the disappearance of any button on the front, which looks set to be the norm after having known Honeycomb and a detail that also suggest new versions of IOS. If we associate its forms of webOS phones we have in the market, rendering the lower part of the LED are also reporting and the area under the screen gestures, so you do not know is how it will manage when the revolve with (I assume that the four frames will be sensitive to the touch).

The other model is known as Opal filtration, and it is a 7-inch tablet in the line of the first developments Android 3.0. It is said that is especially geared towards reading books, with a 1.2GHz processor and have sound quality "premium" a few lines below we explain what may be referred to this.

Details common to share with us the source is the presence of a microUSB port and a front camera for video calls. Going into details of design, it seems that both have curved shapes that had also previously mentioned, slightly similar to those that look the Pre 2. In the rear we find a glossy surface with the HP logo in a size large (shared with Palm).

Can you imagine a tablet that bear Touchstone?. We have a curious speaker arrangement, with three units, so that although there will revolve with the tablet that project two stereo sound on the appropriate disposition, a detail that we have seen in tablets announcements at CES as the Vizio.

Their availability in the market, it seems that September is the month of departure for the model Opal, maybe a little later if any of the important tablets appears after the MWC 2011 in Barcelona. The United States launched three versions: WiFi, 3G AT & T and Verizon LTE. Fortunately it seems that the Topaz seems to come to market.
