According to Sharp, the term "Galapagos" is in reference to the islands that inspired 19th Century British biologist Charles Darwin to formulate his theory of evolution.
The Galapagos devices will automatically download fee-based updates of different newspapers and magazines and will serve as a "concierge" for users by recommending books they might like using their purchasing history.
Pricing and other details of the Sharp Galapagos are slated to be announced later this year.
Rival Sony also announced its plans to release its own tablet with the year.
