While almost all major PC makers have released their tablets so far (whether they be Android, Windows, or WebOS), none of them have actually been very successful. Now with Amazon launching a very affordably priced tablet (Kindle Fire), companies like Acer, Asus, Dell and HP seem to be having second thoughts about the entire segment. In a story done last week, Digitimes noted that their sources from supply chains had said that the PC-makers would be gradually exiting the tablet market on account of tough competition from Apple, Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
However, soon after while speaking to Cnet, an Asus spokesperson referred to the Digitimes story as "incorrect" and said that Asus had no plans to exit the tablet market. Dell also made an official statement reiterating their plans to continue making tablets.
