We've heard an awful lot about a forthcoming
Android tablet rocking an Amazon logo, including a little teasing from CEO Jeff Bezos
back in May, and now
The Wall Street Journal's adding flames to the slate fire saying the hotly anticipated tab could be on its way before October. According to those oh so familiar "people familiar with the matter," the Android-based slate would rock a nine-inch screen and, surprisingly, lack a camera, making it ill-suited as an
iPad competitor -- the tablet would apparently be focused on offering media purchased from the online retailer. What's more, those sources are also spreading word of two new Kindles coming in Q3 -- one with a touchscreen, the other a budget version of the current e-reader. Of course, it's all just rumor for now, but that's a whole lot of rumor.
