^^ Its simple actually.
If you can afford a mid range or high tab, there's no point in buying such a low cost tabs, which is not designed for "entertainment" purposes.

Personally, I would like to have one such low end tab, since I can't afford a mid range one for atleast a few months.

I m going for a Chinese one from eBay. Cost Rs 4320. 1 GHx. Android market app and flash support. 2USB ports
And a LAN port which is what I need.
Akash doesnot have Android market app and 700 MHz speed. So I think the Chinese one is better than Akash.

^^Aakash tablet doesn't support Android market since, it doesn't support SIM cards.

But Ubislate 7+ which is an upgraded version of Aakash (now renamed to Ubislate, btw) does support SIM card, hence it should contain support for Android market.

(I am not sure, but it "should").

You can get bored with your computer if you don't install games or don't have internet.. use TAB for its possibilities and every other day you will find it interesting.. :)

i want a tab basically for surfing net, and with lots of interesting APPS. From last one year i'm using nokia 5230 with CFW and using reliance gprs which giving 3g speed from last 6month. And i use my cell like TAB :) installing apps, net surfing, watching HD VIDEO, playing games, using like 3g modem to pc. Reading online newspaper, social networking sites and messenger like nimbuzz, whatsapp etc. I never got bored with my cell. Its 1yr old now. Only i hate its small screen, and lil slow in ram, as its just 466MHz. And ya big drawback no front camera, so no video call. :( thats why i want a cheap and value for money tab. Guys any suggestion under Rs. 10k ?

Else you can go to iberry or Beetel Magiq if quality matters.

That's just sad! :( Was expecting a lot from so called, "upgraded" version of Ubislate!

Upgraded. What is upgraded other than CPU, battery and RAM. CPU 700 Mhz for a 7" screen is still slow. Ubislate cost 3000. There is company's profit, dealer's share etc etc. What will be its manufacturing cost? 1000/1500. They are providing 1yr warranty in this "bound to have problems" Tab. Till now no confirmation of release date. I booked in first week of Dec. But no news till now. Just a few updates on their Facebook page. From this scenario we can imagine what will be their servicing like.

But one good thing is clear about Ubislate is that it will have developer support just like in case of Android phones with so many people ordering it.

What has a SIM card slot got to do with Android Market? :|

This is Samsung Galaxy Tab P1010. There's no SIM Card slot in there. :)

^ ^ wouldnot it be good if you can send sms direct from your tablet. And GPRS. SIM card is needed for GPRS.

same what i want,,,




iberry????????????/ hwz that?:neutral::neutral:

iBerry is good though I read somewhere that they dont support some 3G dongles available.

But does other tabs support all dongles. So you can go for it. It has warranty and specs also look good. The higher model also support 3G and 2G SIM
