HP is trying to steal some of the limelight from the iPad. Less than 48 hours after customers lined up to get their hands on Apple’s newly released tablet computer, HP unveiled a highly produced video of its yet-to-be released Slate tablet. It shows the HP tablet device will be heavily focused on multimedia including music, video, camera and video chat, observed Alex Spektor, a wireless analyst at Strategy Analytics. There is no mention of e-book functionality, gaming or Web-browsing capabilities, although the Firefox icon appears on the video.
