Lenovo is coming out with a tablet, which will be called LePad: http://gizmodo.com/5591456/lenovo-commits-to-lepad-android-tablet-by-end-of-leyear
And just yesterday HP files for “Palmpad” trademark, so it’s pretty safe to assume that they’re working on a tablet too: http://gizmodo.com/5590902/hp-files-for-palmpad-trademark-could-be-webos-tablet-name
And of course there’s the iPad.
So I guess tablet computers will officially be called “pads” now.
