Google's Eric Schmidt has told Italian newspaper Corriere della Sea that 'in the next six months we plan to market a tablet of the highest quality', reports SlashGear.
Exact details of the upcoming tablet were not revealed, and it's unclear whether the slate will be specifically branded with Google's Nexus nomenclature or be another manufacturer's model that the search giant will champion. A similar strategy was put in place earlier in the year, when Google worked with Motorola to launch the XOOM, the first Honeycomb tablet on the market.
Schmidt also praised Apple for transitioning the tablet from the enterprise markets to a consumer product.
"Steve Jobs was the Michelangelo of our time" he told the newspaper, "[he] realized the revolutionary potential of the tablet and has created an amazing product like the iPad." However, "our companies compete" he continued, "it is capitalism."
