32 Windows 8 tablets already this year

Microsoft and Intel are going to seriously shrink Apple’s share in the tablet market by releasing more than 30 devices on the “eight” to the shelves by the end of the year. 

Such companies as Hewlett-Packard, Dell, Lenovo, Acer, Asustek Computer and Toshiba are already among the manufacturers ready to bring new devices to the market in 2012. 

It is with their help that the software and hardware giants are going to push Apple’s hegemony in the tablet market, reducing it from the current 70% to about 50% and below by mid-2013. 

Moreover, companies want to “beat” on all fronts at once. Lenovo and Acer devices will be designed for the budget sector at a price of $ 300. It is assumed that they will compete with cheap Android devices. Other manufacturers will be engaged in the manufacture of “competitors” of the iPad. Moreover, the price for some devices will be about $ 1 thousand. 

All this became known thanks to the Taiwanese sources of the DigiTimes portal, so divide it into two, as they say.
