Although there are many contenders in the tablet world at this point and many more coming, a common deciding factor among them seems to be hardware and functionality versus price. Dual-core Honeycomb tablets seem to be the norm nowadays however, with them comes a hefty price tag and limited – but growing – support. ViewSonic is looking to give you a new option in the tablet world that couples the well-traveled Android 2.2 OS with a reasonable price tag of $250.
The ViewBook 730 is aimed at people who want a functional tablet at an afforadable price. Although there’s no Honeycomb or dual-core processor the ViewBook has quite a bit to offer.
- 7-inch LED backlit touchscreen display
- Android 2.2 Froyo
- 1GHz ARM Cortex A8 processor
- 8Gb internal space, expandable to 32Gb via microSD
- USB, and HDMI port
Given the sub $300 price and the added capabilities of an already well-known and well-versed OS, the ViewBook 730 delivers the same things we love about our phones and the tablet experience we desire.
You can expect to see this tablet hitting stores sometime this month. Who wants one?
