Microsoft Could Reveal Windows 8 (Tablet Version) Next Week

From the guys of Mobilissimo.ro we learn that Microsoft could reveal Windows 8, in its tablet version next week, maybe during Computex 2011. What the iPad started last year and what the Android Tegra 2 devices continued, Microsoft must finish and rule the market, just like it does with the PCs. Keep in mind that desktops are dying and tablets are the future, so that’s quite a scare for MS.

Windows 7 tablets are out right now, as they’re not intuitive and as fast as the Android ones for example. Supposedly we’re going to see an early version of Win 8 for tablets in only days for now, one meant to run on ARM architecture. The CPU is the usual Nvidia Tegra 2, found on popular devices, such as the Motorola Xoom, Asus Transformer and Acer A500.

Steve Ballmer is going to do the honors during Computex 2011, taking place from May 31st onward. Let’s see what surprises MS has for us and if they’re considering an App Store of their own or not…
