HP Slate is price is higher then the iPad, one of the Spanish sites mentioned the price of the HP Slate is $499 higher than iPad. It is very astonishing about the HP Slate price higher than iPad, but it is the fact and already mentioned in Spanish site Clipset.
HP Slate Tablet is expected to be launched very soon in America with approximately $544 price and also expected to be arrived in Europe with approximate price euros 400 in coming June 2010. HP Slate Tablet is powered by Microsoft 7 Operating system and only advantage over iPad is the Flash technology used in tablet. Otherwise, there are high numbers of iPhone’s users in the market.
Microsoft has not yet officially announced the HP Slate Tablet Price in the market. But they must reconsider tablet price, if they have decided to launch it with this price in the market. There is no reason for having high price then iPad. The biggest question arises that there are high number of users for iPhones and IPads are in the market as compare to tablets. Secondly, iPad will be arrived before tablet release. Therefore iPad will capture market before the arrival of tablet. However, Microsoft has to look into this scenario of tablet price higher than iPad.
