Amazon tablet coming in August, powered by a TI OMAP processor?

Amazon tablet coming in August, powered by a TI OMAP processor?DigiTimes has been fueling rumors of Amazon’s first foray into the LCD tablet market for months, and it seemed that their rumor are starting to sound very real. Today it ratchets up the specificity with sometimes contradictory claims that Quanta Computer will be responsible for assembling the tablet with a supposed TI (not NVIDIA) processor and Wintek (not EIH) touch panel among its components.

According to DigiTimes, Amazon hopes to move some four million units in 2011 alone with plans to launch the new tablet as soon as August. Possible? Sure, likely even, although they previously said that Samsung is making one for ‘em. But we’ll wait for Bezos to sing before updating our holiday shopping lists. No, seriously, I still trust you.
