Ipad to be launched tomorrow

Although the Swedish launch of the iPad is tomorrow, The Swedish Retail Institute has already chosen it as the Christmas Present of the Year. There are Android-based tablet PCs available on the market, but even Google admits that the current version of the platform is not optimally-suited for such devices. Nevertheless, with RIM’s Playbook on the way and eventual strategy adjustments by Google, it won’t be long before Apple’s number-one position will be challenged, writes SvD.
