Nexus tablet at its Google we/O conference in San Francisco this week, according to training documents viewed by Gizmodo Australia.
The search giant is expected to reveal a Nexus branded 7 inch tablet at its annual Google we/O developer conference, which kicks off tomorrow in San Francisco — news that comes hot on the heels of Microsoft’s Surface announcement last week, the first new tablet from that company as well.

Called the Nexus 7, the rumored 7 inch tablet is built by Asus and will feature a 1.3 GHz quad core nVidia processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 1.2 megapixel front facing camera.

Google, which recently bought hardware maker Motorola, is also readying its own tablet, a source familiar with the company’s plans said.. It is inevitable that Microsoft will upset hardware partners such as Samsung and Hewlett Packard Co with its well guarded move, said Olson, but that would likely not cause a long term rift.. “They (Computer makers) might bristle but ultimately they will have to work with Microsoft,” he said. “They will continue to be the leading operating system maker for both enterprises and consumers.
