Tablet PC makers are rumored to bring forward their launch schedule to compete with iPad 2. The competition is hotting up ... and it looks like Apple has beaten the competition once again in releasing a dual core tablet before anyone else.

"Tablet PC vendors are expected to bring forward their launch schedules as early as the end of March in order to compete against Apple's iPad 2, according to sources from tablet PC players.

Since most vendors expected Apple to launch iPad 2 in the second quarter, Apple's strategy of launching the device in early March has messed up its competitors' plans for their tablet PCs, causing them to rush to launch their tablet PCs into the channel, the sources noted."
