Mobile phone giant Motorola is looking at launching its tablet computer early next year,as the firm hopes to expand its product line beyond cell phones.
8220;We want to make sure that any tablet that we deliver is competitive in the marketplace,and I think all of us will make sure that we will only deliver computer that when that occurs,8221; Motorola8217;s India-born Co-Chief Executive Sanjay Jha said.
8220;Hopefully,that8217;s early next year. The tablet would be Motorola8217;s answer to Apple8217;s iPad,which has dominated the market since its launch in April this year,8221; added Jha.
Apple said in June that it has sold three million of its iPad tablets.
Jha has tried to turn around Motorola8217;s troubled cell phone business by refocusing it on smart phones powered by Google Inc8217;s Android operating system,the Wall Street Journal said.
