Microsoft has given us a hint of its tablet future with partners, and Apple may have an iSlate announcement to make later this month, but come February 1st it looks like another manufacturer will release their own tablet on the market.
DigitalRise is releasing the X9 tablet PC which incorporates 3G and GPS. The specs are as follows:
•CPU: Atom N270 1.6GHz

What’s not so impressive is the cost of the X9 which has a list price of $999.99, but is currently listed to buy at $779.99 on China Grabber. There is a waiting list already for the X9, but it is meant to ship on February 1st.
