Not too long back we became familiar with rumors of 7 and 5 inch sized iPads. These were planned for release during early Christmas 2011. Now Apple head, Steve Jobs has poured cold water on this plan. The new statement made by him declares that the ten inch sized iPads are the best and easiest to handle regarding their great quality. This would bring a superior performance for people. Steve has put on controversial statements about different aspects of marketing explaining the diminishing inches in iPad screens.
But now he is sticking to the fact that screens can go no lower than ten inches to bring superior performance. Steve has made comments like tablet iPads need to bring sandpapers out with their production so that people can grind their fingers with them to be able to operate on those iPad screens. But the Samsung Galaxy Tab on the other hand has revealed itself to be a fine range of iPad doing its work and being in demand as well, despite its high pricing. This proves that real work can be efficiently done through those tablet sized iPads as well!
In my opinion the move to a seven-inch screen could make sense for Apple as the market is wide open for devices of all sizes. The five-inch Dell Streak is the only Android tablet currently available with the clout and mainstream manufacturer marketing muscle to compete with the iPad, and Samsung might soon step into the ring with the seven-inch Galaxy Tab.
Other tablets from HP, Acer, Sony, LG and Motorola are all still "months away," according to various rumors and reports.
