Although all tablet lovers are waiting anxiously to know all about what’s new from Apple, at least some of you are looking forward to play with the Tablet P, Sony’s unique clamshell Android tablet. The dual-screened device, which was announced last year, is finally making its way stateside via AT&T on March 4^th.

Just to refresh your memory, the Tablet P boasts a pair of 5.5-inch LCD screens which work independently or combined into a single large screen. So, when folded, that will be a 10-inch device in your pocket.

Running Android 3.2 Honeycomb with the company’s software additions (upgrade to ICS has been promised to arrive in a few months), the Tablet P also features a dual-core Tegra 2 processor, 1GB of RAM, 5MP rear cam and just 4GB of storage with a microSD card slot for cards of up to 32GB. You will have access to many apps optimized for the dual screens of the tablet from the company’s Select App, and of course Android Market is always there. And it is PlayStation Certified as well.

Via AT&T, the Tablet P will be available for $399 with a 2 year contract. It is a 4G device and you can choose from two monthly plans: $35/mo for 3GB of data or $50/mo for 5GB. But if you choose the latter, after two years you would have spent $1600. But you can get the device contract-free for $549 and select a pre-paid data plan that suits you.

But forget about all that if you have marked March 7^th on your calendar.

Assuming that you are willing to sign a two-year contract with Canada’s dog, you can land the Nokia 2720 for zero dollars and zero cents. Yup, it’s another one of those “free with contract” handsets, but you do get a reasonable set of features.

The rather basic-looking clamshell has an external display and an integrated handsfree speaker, so I think you can use it with the phone closed too. Other highlights include the 1.3 megapixel camera, FM radio, Bluetooth, and a large keypad.

The Fido website is currently showing that the Nokia 2720 is currently “not in stock,” so you may need to hit up the customer service line or your local kiosk to get it. Opt out of a contract and you can have the phone for $70 outright.
