Nvida mystery tablet wows us. Leaves us yearning for more info.

An oft rumored Apple tablet has so far failed to materialize. I’m pretty confident Apple is close to releasing one however. Call it a gut feeling. Meanwhile, this whole waiting thing and constantly not knowing can wear down on your nerves. A rather surprising solution has come from a very surprising manufacturer — Nvidia. The tablet pictured above instantly reminds me of some of those CrunchPad renders. Whether or not we’ll ever see that device is still up in the air. This mystery device however was spotted during an interview between Nvidia’s Jen-Hsun Huang and several journalists in Dubai. Was he vacationing, visiting strictly for work (for that gorgeous tablet in particular), or simply there to nerd out on the cool buildings and feel some hot Dubai sand between his toes? I really can’t speculate on that. RIght now the only thing we do know is that Tegra will be the mobile powerhouse between this gadget, whatever it may be — the nameless soldier. Unfortunately for us, Mr. Huang was suffering from a bit of lock-jaw regarding the tablet so absolutely nothing is known about it that we already didn’t know (you know…like one actually existing…) Where do you stand on it?

**Update: Engadget is reporting that this mystery tablet is a “Tegra prototype from an ODM called ICD”. Quell your curiosity?
