Sony Unveils PlayStation Tablets

During a media briefing in Japan today, Sony announced two new tablet computers, the S1 and S2, available globally this Fall.

The S1 has a single 9.4-inch display while the S2 features two 5.5 inch screens in a clamshell design similar to the Nintendo 3DS. The dual screens can be used as one combined larger screen or separately to allow video to play on the top screen with input commands on the bottom, for example.

Both tablets are PlayStation Certified, allowing users to download and play PlayStation One titles through PlayStation Suite. They are also both equipped with Android 3.0, WiFi and 3G/4G. Price details were not announced at this time.
