UK-based firm X2 Computing has unveiled its iTablet device, designed to compete directly with Apple’s much-heralded iPad tablet

The touchscreen devices are slim and light – just like the iPad – and the user interface is designed to seem intuitive to mobile phone users. The company claims that the high resolution screen (1024 x 768) provides an excellent e-reader experience, as well as high definition multimedia playback.

Running on Intel’s Atom processors up to 1.6GHz, the iTablet is able to run multiple applications simultaneously – a feature which gives it an edge over Apple’s iPad. The range includes some versions with a built-in 1.3 mega-pixel USB camera – which the iPad also lacks – although it has been discovered that future versions of Apple’s device could contain a built-in camera.
