It looks as thought supply chains are about to bust wide open for the much-anticipated Pixel Slate tablet. Google’s flagship Chromebook has been put up for pre-order and we are expecting the Chrome OS tablet to start shipping out just prior to Black Friday.
Quicker than I expected, Amazon is now listing the Pixel Slate for pre-order as well. Currently, the Celeron model is still only available from the Google store. However, those who prefer Amazon (like our household) can place their orders and have the Pixel Slate on the way as soon as Google decides to say the word.
