Hey all,

Just a heads-up that Harvey Norman are selling a 7" Android tablet for $68
this weekend -
http://www.harveynorman.com.au/amicroe-touchtab-ii-tablet.html Specs
'highlights' are: 1.2GHz, 512MB RAM, 4GB flash, wifi, 0.3MP front-facing
camera. More complete specs at http://www.amicroe.com.au/pd_tablet_7.aspx

For the ridiculous price, it seems that it's a perfectly acceptable device
(see this thread at Whirlpool -
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/2035287). Would make a decent ebook
reader, but I'll be getting one as a dev device (I've just started playing
with Android app dev) and maybe play around with hacking a lightweight
distro onto it...


Cheers,

Jessica
