For those of you who have been waiting in suspense for the past few months to find out who TabCo is the wait is over because they were revealed moments ago as Fusion Garage. Chandra Rathakrishnan, the head of the company, took the stage earlier today to unveil the new Grid 10 tablet and the Grid operating system.

It didn’t take long for people to start dubbing the Grid 10 tablet as the “JooJoo 2”, although the staff at Fusion Garage prefer the 2 devices weren’t associated with one another. The launch of the Grid 10 tablet is coupled with an announcement of the new Fusion Garage app store and Grid Shop.
