The tablet that you might be waiting for is almost here. The BlackBerry Playbook is now available for pre-order at Office Depot. Prices are the same as the iPad 2 so now you have a choice to make. The 16GB model will cost you $499, 32GB for $599, and 64GB for $699. For now they're only WiFi models so you're going to have to wait a bit more for those 3G and 4G models. Check it out on Office Depot if you want to pre-order one.

Update: BGR has just pointed out that the Playbook will be available at Office Depot starting on April 19th - as expected!

Well, well, well. It looks like there's another place that we'll be seeing the BlackBerry Playbook. The leaked image above states that Office Depot will also be getting it and they plan to release the 16GB model with WiFi for $499.99 which is right on par with the current iPad. It also states an in-store date of Week 17 which is mid-April; right on pace with the rumour mill. The biggest part about this leak is that we finally get a price on this tablet.

Have you been holding off on a tablet with Tegra 2, Android 2.2, and a cheap price tag? Well, you might want to head to Office Depot because they have just released one. If you're willing to take your chances with a tablet built by ViewSonic, then you might want to take a look at the 10.1-inch G Tablet (1,024 x 600 resolution). This tablet should be available in stores across the US right now for $399. Other specs include 16GB of internal storage, a 1.3MP front-facing camera, WiFi 802.11n / Bluetooth support, USB / HDMI ports, and 1GB of RAM.

The 14-inch Acer Travelmate Timeline was just spotted at Office Depot. This 14-inch model (AS4810T-8480) is available for $699 USD, you get: a 1.4GHz Core Solo SU3500 CPU, 4GB of RAM, a 320GB HDD, and a battery long enough to supposedly last eight hours. However, next week it looks like it will be on sale for $549 USD, so just wait and see what pops up next week - unless you really want to get it.
