Sony's making a few products official during their Tokyo event today and they're great!

The S1 is the one that looks like a regular tablet "with a curved top much like a folded magazine" along with a 9.4-inch display, a Tegra 2 CPU, dual cameras, a custom UI, and it's PlayStation Certified.

The other tablet is the S2 which is sporting dual 5.5-inch displays with an awesome 1,024 x 480 resolution. It also packs the Tegra 2 CPU as well as dual cameras so these tablets are definitely to be reckoned with. I can't imagine it being cheap though. This tablet will, of course, have WiFi as well as 3G / 4G connectivity where needed. Apparently, these will be available in the Fall and maybe we'll get a real name soon. Engadget's sources back in February told them that the S1 could launch for $599, while the S2 could cost $699. Who knows if that will stay true when it actually becomes available in a few months.
