current and upcoming tablets

A look at what's currently available in the tablet world and what's coming down the pike.

Clockwise from the top: The Toshiba Excite 10 LE, Sony Tablet P, and Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 are setting a high design standard for upcoming tablets in 2012.

The tablet market is like that kid in school who, at first, no one really noticed. Then, a year later he starts the school year a foot taller, with a new wardrobe, and suddenly everyone wants to be his friend. But, does he deserve his newfound popularity?
I really don't know. Personally, I've yet to purchase a tablet, and I've still not seen a compelling reason to do so. Still, millions feel differently and have already dived full on into the tablet sector.
Yet, every day there seems to be a new announcement of another manufacturer's plans to release a tablet. It's getting confusing and a little crazy out there, and we at CNET wanted to provide you with a snapshot of not only the current tablet landscape, but a look into the near future and how it's evolving.
We've compiled a list of all the major U.S. released current tablets interwoven with all the tablets yet to be released in the U.S. This list will focus on non-Windows tablets only for now. Enjoy, and if there's any other information you'd like to see on this list, let us know in the comments or via e-mail.
Look for this post to be updated frequently. The post date will be changed each time an additional tablet is added to the list; however, the date won't update for simple changes like price, release date, etc.
