A research senior analyst at Digitimes reported that Nokia is currently preparing to launch a tablet with the Meego OS. The analyst believes that it will be released during the fourth quarter of 2010. He added that 100 engineering samples were already completed for testing.

Can the Meego tablet compete with Steve “Moses” Jobs’ iPad?

Other technical details include that the Meego tablet will be ARM-based and that the display panel will be manufactured Foxconn. Pricing was not mentioned.

Mobile insider Eldar Murtazin added to the speculation by tweeting, “Nokia Tablet Z500 is out to the world, nothing special or great.” Hmm… Z500? Tell me more!
