A 7 inch tablet PC that costs just $70. Well that’s not a marketing gimmick of any sort but a reality now as for an amount that’s as low as $70, you can be the owner of a tablet PC that can boast of decent performance. This, when e-reader prices have just started to crush the $100 price mark.
Specs wise, there isn’t much to show off though what you get is quite adequate. Like apart from the 7-inch resistive touchscreen with a 1024 x 600 pixel resolution, there’s a WM8505+ processor from VIA along with 256MB of DDR2 RAM along with NAND flash storage, the exact size of which isn’t available as yet though the microSD card slot makes sure you will have plenty of room to work around. Google’s open source Android operating system manages the working of the entire tablet PC that also includes twin USB 2.0 ports, a headphone jack along with an embedded mic.
Apart from these, there’s other goodies like a RJ-45 connector or stereo speakers. Connectivity options include 802.11b/g WiFi while there’s also the optional 3G feature that can be availed of. The in built accelerometer ensures the switch from portrait to landscape mode is automatic and effortless. Powering the tablet will be a rather low 2400mAh battery though perhaps, its a reminder that the tablet PC costs just $70.
You will have all of the Tablet/Slate or e-reader news here. So keep watching.
Also, the latest issue of the Good E-Reader Magazine is currently out and is just as exciting as all the previous issues.
With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets. That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
