Indian posters provide more info on 35 dollar tablet PC.

India’s $35 tablet said to ship in October, do dreams really come true?

This mysterious $35 tablet has broken our hearts, crushed our fantasies and even made unicorns cry with delay after delay. Today, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal assured us that the much anticipated slate *will *be released on October 5th – promising that this time, “[It’s] not just a dream.” Evidently, the tablet has overcome the manufacturing problems that plagued the project previously and now production is proceeding according to a new plan. That means that five, seven and nine inch slates are said to be shipping to lucky Indian students in early October – sadly, both the Loch Ness Monster and Bigfoot have advised us not to hold our breath.

Lol, why is everyone touching the device at the same time?

I bought one from eBay for $70.00 made in China it ran Android - PURE GARBAGE- You get what you pay for.

I bought one from KMart last year for $150 the same thing. Then an uncle got one from Hong Kong for $100.
But for $150 I do think the HP TouchPad can’t be beat. Maybe the Kindle Fire with its uber processing would be a good buy

Re: Indian posters provide more info on 35 dollar tablet PC.

^ I bought this junk because my GF and kids would not keep their paws off my iPad, last week I bought Touchpad 32GB for 200 bucks and for the price it is a pretty decent device. Its not as good as iPad but still not bad, ther are talks of porting Android to Touchpad and if it runs succcessfully this think will rock.

Re: Indian posters provide more info on 35 dollar tablet PC.

Yeah, that Android port is almost done. Another week or 2 and it should be ready. I’m anxiously waiting for it too.
