While most of us really haven't heard much in regards to European technology companies that doesn't mean that we shouldn't be paying attention to them. Olivetti, an Italian computer manufacturer, unveiled two tablets that should at least entice European folks. While newer to the tablet game, they started making them last year, they may have found their stride with the OliPad Graphos and OliPad Tegra 3 tablets.
The OliPad Tegra 3 will feature, as you probably guessed it, an Nvidia quad-core Tegra 3 processor and 10-inch IPS (1280 x 800 resolution) display. It will have NFC built in and an option for 3G connectivity. WiFi connectivity will also be built in but details about RAM, on-board storage or any other technical detail is still under wraps. It's cousin, The OliPad Graphos will have an 8-inch screen (1024 x 768 resolution) and will come with stylus support. Which will be quite helpful in playing those rounds of Draw Something. It will weigh in at 1.32 pounds (600 grams) and sport a Tegra SoC 2 processor.
Both devices will have Ice Cream Sandwich on-board and will be coming to Italy before the summer season. There are no details on pricing or whether or not this device will be seen anywhere outside of Italy. Official details should be coming here within the next couple of weeks so keep it locked on TalkAndroid as we will surely update you when we find out. Stay tuned!

Well, actually Olivetti stopped manufacturing computers and other hardware almost two decades ago! Last year’s tablets were simply a re-brand for the Italian market of the ViewSonic G tablets, and even if it’s not confirmed I bet these two are also the latest ViewSonic tablets seen at CES and MWC.
