What are Viewsonic smoking? – Windows 8 Tablets in Q2 2012?

Digitimes is saying that ViewSonic plans to launch Windows 8-based tablet PCs in the Taiwan market in the second quarter of 2012. This according to Max Liu, product marketing director of ViewSonic Asia Pacific.

The Windows 8 model will come with a 10-inch display with high resolution initially, Liu noted. ViewSonic offers a complete lineup of tablet PCs in the Taiwan market, with its ViewPad 10 being the first model supporting both Windows 7 and Android in the local market, Liu claimed.

Maybe they plan to release Windows 8 Compatible tablets as opposed to Windows 8 Tablets? While it would be cool to have Windows 8 released to manufacturing early, I seriously doubt Q2 is doable. This also (obviously) conflicts with the Fujitsu Roadmap revealed earlier today.]]>
