Since it will be a tablet it will be a full tablet experience and will be open so folks can download/buy apps from Google Play, Amazon Appstore, GameFly, etc... Also users can consume content from any store like B&N, Amazon, Google, Kobo, etc... With this HW config it is rumored the price will be at $150-$200.

Another rumor is that it it will have a T3 which is a quad core processor which makes it considerably more powerful than the KFire and Nook. It will be more on par with the Transformer and iPad3. Also a Nexus device but the rumors is this device will cost between $200-$250.

I like the second rumor better. However, they need to get on the ball with pre-orders if they plan to ship in June.
