Nvidia to launch Shield Tablet based on Tegra K1-soc
It is getting more certain with each day that passes that Nvidia is about to release a Shield Tablet and it will be based on the new Tegra K1-soc. If you look at the website from the Global Certification Forum, there is an entry that has just been approved and that device is listed as the Shield Tablet. The Shield Tablet also was mentioned in Nvidia's own TegraZone website for a brief moment.
The Global Certification Forum certifies devices for 3g and 4g. Specs for an unreleased device called the NVIDIA Mocha were also leaked by online benchmark results in May.
They describe a system with an NVIDIA Tegra K1 processor (192 Shader cores / quad core ARM A15) and a 7.9 inch, 2048 x 1536 pixel display. The Tablet would get 2GB RAM memory and would be absed on Android 4.4.
Here's that entry, and scheck out some screenshots of early benchmark leaks and info as well.

Well, we can be sure of one thing, it will be overpriced.

Well the original Tegra Tablet was priced pretty good, though with a higher resolution screen and better specs, this one will be more expensive, though I would guess less expensive than other android tablets like Samsung's S tablets

Writing this on tablet with 4core A31, 2GB ram, 2048x1536 ips.
But not on native android, I use remote desktop to W8.1, because android has trouble to display half of things properly and weirdly enough high upload allows me to play videos over RDP where any browser on android just chokes and dies.
Any Android based device priced over 300$ is overpriced as cheapest 300$ intel tablet with win 8.1 will simply work better. May not be as powerful but content will work as designed.
Therefore I simply do not see vital market for Tegra 4 / K1. And I really wanted it to work, but google killed it.
That is why AMD has chance to get good piece of tablets if their new 4.5W tdp chips are as good as they seems to be.
(this would not cut from nVidia much as nV market penetration is very low too)
As people are waking up from this dream about android productivity use, they aim for something competent.
x86 tablets/convertibles are 99.5% intel owned.
So R.I.P. K1 and better luck next time with something not driven by google.
We maybe need serious linux 4 arm development boost.
