$35 Android Tablet in India


Rajeev Makhni & Vikram Chandra from NTDV Gadget Guru preview a working prototype of the $35 Android Tablet. 




This is an exceptional gadget! The price at which it is promised to be delivered is a mere 35$ (Rs. 1700+). Has 2 Gb RAM, runs on android platform ( which is open source and has massive support for wide scale improvements, addon-developments).

I-pad is way too costly as compared to this! and guess what??? it has 2 USB 2.0 ports, wifi, SD card slot, a TV out and what not!!
 
A revolutionary step from INDIAN HRD ministry, in collaboration with IIT and IIST.

Positive Points
  • Working Prototype
  • Affordable Price
  • Heavy Duty Hardware
Negative Point
  • Resistive Touch Screen
The $35 price tag is what the government of India would need to pay the manufacturer per unit for a bulk order of 1,000,000 units. They would be given to higher-education students and may possibly hit store shelves at a higher price.
The reviewer’s biggest complaints were the resistive touch display. They also seemed a bit skeptical as to whether the device will actually be delivered to 1,000,000 students within a couple of years.

The device is getting some attention fro Google, Microsoft and the founder of OLPC, amongst others.
