India's $35 7-Inch Android Tablet To Hit In January

indogiree writes "Engadget reports that India has just awarded the manufacturing contract to HCL Technologies. The first shipment will supposedly only contain the 7-inch model and is set to arrive on January 10. It's unclear if the $35 price has stuck or whether India's been successful in plans to drive the price down to $10 eventually with the help of large orders and government subsidies. HCL Technologies plans to initially produce 100,000 units. Among the key features of this India-based tablet include 2GB of RAM, web-conferencing, PDF reader, unzip, WiFi, camera and USB connectivity."

John McCarthy is the inventor/creator of Lisp and a Mac user. Just one of a great number of people far more intelligent and technically astute users that put comments from people like you in context. You really don't know how to use Wikipedia or Google to find that information in seconds? [the point of my post was putting you down for cluelessly parroting nonsense]
