Well, we've been assuming for months that if Google is preparing a big reveal for the much-rumored Nexus Tablet, it would be at the company's yearly developer conference, Google I/O. TechnoBuffalo is claiming information from an anonymous source (the best kind!) that says the tablet will absolutely show up at the conference, and as other rumors have indicated, ASUS will produce the hardware. New software is also rumored, though whether or not it's Android 5.0 is still in question. Note that this comes just hours after DiGiTimes reported the same thing.

The Internet is abuzz with the latest rumors surrounding Google's first-party Android tablet, namely that it won't be here as soon as many had hoped.

The reasoning? They're doing some tweaks to the internal hardware - which, by the way, is still a complete unknown - to lower the price. The tablet was already expected to retail for $200 or less to compete with the popular reader-tablets on the market right now.

So today Google opened what we can only call the flood gates for Google I/O 2012 registration, and flood gates might even be an understatement.

I've already seen countless angry tweets, and emails on the fact that no one that wanted to go -- actually got tickets.
