Motorola’s foray into the world of tablets, like so many others, have not exactly yielded the kind of success that Apple has had with their iPad and its sequel, the iPad 2. Still, that does not mean that Motorola is going to quit from the tablet market. Today, Motorola Solutions announced a spanking new 7? touchscreen rugged tablet that will be powered by Android 2.3 Gingerbread – and since there is no Honeycomb inside, you can be sure that this is not going to be a tablet for the masses but rather, one that is deployed for workers in retail stores and warehouses.

The Motorola ET1 will be powered by a 1GHz dual-core processor, where it is aided by 8GB of internal storage which can be further expanded should you decide to include a 32GB microSD memory card. Just how tough is this 1.4-pound tablet anyway? It supposedly is said to offer anywhere from 3 to 5 years of life considering its ruggedness, which by far and large is longer lasting than consumer-grade tablets.

Tipped to cost under a grand when purchased in large volumes by businesses, the Motorola ET1's shipments will begin in December. Seems like a pretty expensive proposition for any company that decides to take up a position with this puppy. Ah well, at least it sports a Gorilla Glass display which is 30% thicker than in most consumer tablets, not to mention being position in a recessed position to better withstand drops.
