It seemed like a bit of a stretch from the beginning, but it looks like India's $35 Android tablet
is intent on proving the skeptics wrong -- the Indian government has
just announced that it's awarded the manufacturing contract to HCL
Technologies (makers of the once world's cheapest laptop),
and that the first batch of tablets are slated to be available by
January 10th. That initial run will reportedly only include the 7-inch
model that we've been seeing all along, but there's also apparently
5-inch and 9-inch versions planned for launch at a later date. We also
presume that the tablet is still hanging onto that $35 price tag (for
university students, at least), but that key detail is curiously absent
from this latest announcement.
I dont know about this..it has Android, but they are getting cheap manufacturer to make it...probably will fall apart. I saw Ipad a few days ago and it is nice.
