We first saw India's cheap tablet this past year, and today, annually later, the Aakash has began shipping to Indian students filled with the guaranteed $35 cost.
The specs have transformed somewhat most considerably, the initial Linux OS continues to be changed by Android 2.2 Froyo. The seven inch resistive touchscreen has 800 x 480 resolution, driven with a 366-MHz co-processor with 256-Megabytes of RAM and 32-GB of expensive memory. That is not exactly likely to humiliate your apple ipad 2, however it should help huge numbers of people to obtain online the very first time.
The $35 cost includes an Indian government subsidy close to $15 per tablet, however the producers hope to find the actual retail cost lower to $35 once volume production takes over. As the fundamental version only has Wi-Fi connectivity, a retail version having a modem and Sim is anticipated to follow along with for approximately $70.
