Staples, a company whose business revolves around helping folks buy the best office products and services for their needs, has announced support to help research, compare and choose the right tablet to fit the personal and business needs for every customer.

“The days of the iPad’s virtual monopoly on the tablet market are over as an onslaught of new innovative tablet computers begins to enter the market,” reads a report from Staples, the world’s largest office products company.

“The new options are generating a wave of tablet demand among businesses and consumers but also creating anxiety over the risk of buying the wrong tablet for their needs,” Staples believes.

If you haven’t been able to decide whether or not you need Apple’s latest Marvel, Staples says it can help you decide on another, by putting you in contact with one of its ‘thousands’ of certified EasyTech associates in more than 1,600 U.S. stores and online sites.

The company will showcase side-by-side feature and price comparisons, photos, educational videos and business applications using videos such as “Why Buy A Tablet?” and “Tablet Specs to Consider”; business tools and benefits of new tablets on the market; recommendations on tablet protection and storage accessories; and key features of each tablet and a glossary of terms.

The company offers its ‘Staples Advantage’ service which focuses on the mobile employee and business applications.

It aims to promote a combination of tablets and accessories that give customers business solutions to increase productivity and save time. These include cases, charging stations, and Bluetooth keyboards, Staple said.

Tablets including the Motorola XOOM, BlackBerry PlayBook and Dell Streak will be available in all Staples retail locations, at Staples.com, or through Staples Advantage this Spring, the company said.

In the months to follow, they plan to bring over “the next wave of new tablets” including devices from Acer, Dell, HP, Toshiba and “other leading manufacturers.”
