Chinese Android-based iPad Clone Comes, Will Likely Go
Not that we had anything to do with its conception, but it’s hard to root for an Android device that’s trying to mimic the iPad and fail so terribly at it. As Android fans, we strive to prove to our non-believing friends that Android can do anything that competing operating systems can do, and more.
While it’s true from a software standpoint, things just don’t always come together as well as they should in some cases. Such a case would be the tablet that Euogo’s offering: 633MHz VIA processor, Android 1.7 (yes, you read that right), 128MB of RAM, no Android market to be found, and a needlessly large bezel with Apple’s trademark “Home” button.
You’ll also get 2GB of internal storage (upgradeable to 16GB), a 7-inch touch screen with a resolution of 800×480, and all of your standard connectivity options sans 3G and Bluetooth.All of this can be had for $117.30. I can think of a lot better things to do with $117.30. How about striking up a Google Adsense campaign urging Android users everywhere to steer well clear of this atrocity?
