[dgstorm]

Canada and the United States are getting treated to some NVIDIA gaming Android tablet goodness today. They just started shipping their fancy new Tegra K1 equipped Shield tablet. This tablet is meant to push Android gaming to a whole new level and start the push toward evolving into a portable console gaming product.

The 8-inch tablet comes jam-packed with NVIDIA's 192-core GPU to bring near Desktop level graphics to a tablet. It will sell for $299 for the 16GB model. For $60 more you can get a SHIELD controller which syncs up with the tablet through direct WiFi. This supposedly provides a smoother connection than typical Bluetooth-based controllers.
