Listing for 7-inch ASUS tablet with Bluetooth LE sets tongues a-wagging

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/06/memo.jpgWe’ve been hearing mumblings that the next version of Android will get a new Bluetooth stack with v4.0 Low Energy (LE) goodness for a while now. That, at least, explains why the Nexus 4 and Galaxy Nexus have been re-sent through the Bluetooth SIG in order to gain approval for the newer standard. What’s less clear is what the ASUS K008, an apparently new 7-inch slate from the company, is doing supporting v4.0 LE. Our dour belief is that ASUS is merely future-proofing its forthcoming MeMo Pad HD 7, but perhaps “K008” is optimistic latin for “second-generation Nexus 7 with Android 4.3.”
