RIM BlackBerry Cobalt/BlackPad Tablet Device To Arrive In 2011?

RIM is also planning to launch flat plane, and naming BlackPad or Cobalt.

The tablet is still thought to be officially unveiled sometime in 2011. It would sport both a 3G connection and Wi-Fi and may sync with a BlackBerry smartphone.

Word on the street has Research In Motion (NSDQ: RIMM) tapping Hon Hai, the famous iPhone component integrators, to assemble the BlackBerry tablet.

If such a device were to become a reality, it’s expected to be unveiled sometime in 2011, sporting a 3G connection, Wi-Fi, and possibly sync with a BlackBerry smartphone.

We’re told to look for an announcement of the BlackPad (Cobalt) sometime in 2011 – likely during the WES 2011 conference. But, again, as these types of rumors go, don’t bet the farm on seeing a BlackBerry tablet launching next year.
