Unique Tablet Design Features Two 5.5 Inch Screens, Easily Fits into a Pocket or Purse
DALLAS, Feb. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* today announced Sony Tablet(TM) P, a dual screen, multi-functional tablet ideal for mobile communication and entertainment, will be available beginning March 4.

The new Sony Tablet P pushes the design of a tablet even further by elevating the user experience to entirely new levels.

Customers can also combine the displays into a single large screen and its unique folding design means it can fit easily into a pocket or purse.
At launch, users will be able to download apps optimized for the dual screens of Sony Tablet P via Sony's "Select App," including games, entertainment and lifestyle applications. In addition to optimized apps, Sony Tablet P users will have access to the full suite of Android applications via Android Market. Like its predecessor, Sony Tablet P is PlayStation(TM) Certified and provides access to the full suite of Sony Network Entertainment services. Sony Tablet devices are distinguished by four key features that set them apart from any other tablets on the market. These include: uniquely designed hardware and software, a "swift and smooth" experience (which includes Sony original features, Quick view and Quick touch), network entertainment services and cross-device connectivity.
Running on Android 3.2, Sony Tablet(TM) P is 4G**capable and Wi-Fi compatible. With a qualifying data plan, users of Sony Tablet(TM) P also have access to AT&T's mobile broadband network and unlimited access to AT&T's nearly 30,000 hot spots nationwide.
