The Kindle Fire could be the first truly successful Android tablet

The Kindle Fire could be the first truly successful Android tablet. It touts a very reasonable $200 price tag, a well-curated app store, easy access to Amazon’s cloud-based services, brand trust and recognition. It’s Amazon’s most ambitious foray into hardware since the original Kindle’s debut.

And the Fire has the potential to engulf all its Android tablet brethren.

To date, Android tablet sales have mostly been lackluster. The Motorola Xoom only shipped 440,000 units in its first three months. Samsung’s 7-inch Galaxy Tab fared better, hitting the one million mark before it had been on the market for two months. But there are countless other Android tablets, and none of them are making a big splash in the iPad-dominated space. Many have taken to slashing their prices just to make a tiny grab at the tablet market.

Now, that has to be about the weirdest name we have seen for a tablet. Fujitsu has just announced their new addition to the tablet market, named the Sylistic M350/CA2. This one is aimed at all the users in a suit, with an enterprise-focused approach.

Among the uses for this tablet, Fujitsu is boasting its ability to be used as a mobile sales terminal, as a digital catalog handset and as an e-reader. Aside from being able to use the on-screen keyboard, users will also be able to use handwriting as an input.

The details are a bit of a lackluster. We will have to wait until we see more to know if Fujitsu has anything up its sleeve to differentiate this tablet from the competition. As for the specs, we do not know much, either. Except for the fact that it has a 7″ WSVGA “high-resolution” display (1024x600p), which is not bad for its size.

The Fujitsu Stylistic will be available in mid-February for the Japanese market, so let’s see when/if it hits the rest of the world.
