A seven inch touch screen, WiFi, USB 2.0, 1080p video, that uses less than 400 mega amps. The new Android 4.0 tablet for $100 is on its way!
The iPad is awesome. It remains the leader in it’s market for several reasons not the least of which is its price. Unlike Apple desktops of yesteryear, the iPad has kept its price down to a competitive level to keep its lead over similar products. This is about to change.
Amazon’s Kindle Fire is the new kid on the block as of this writing and it is doing quite well with its $199.99 (yeah, I know, just call it 200 for crying out load) price tag. The iPad 2 with IOS 5 is ripping it up with awesome new features though many believe its features are redundant. However, in a few months the new, new kid on the block will out price all of these.
The Android 4.0 Tabled (affectionately named Ice Cream Sandwich) is already for sale in China and is on its way to the United States. With a retail price of $100 I can only imagine what the tablet market scenario will be like once it is available here.
Personally, I have steered clear of the tablet devices because I use a laptop. A tablet seems pretty cool but for $500 why would I need it when my laptop does everything a tablet does AND it has a “real” keyboard.
Granted, I have coveted tablet users a couple of times. They are very sleek. But I wonder about how fragile the screen is and what would happen if I bumped it into a door knob or something (which I’ve done with my laptop), or if my 10 year old got a hold of it… “can this fly like a frisbee”.
However, a hundred dollars is not a big price tag and I will no doubt seriously reconsider my position on the tablet computer once it becomes available. My trusty laptop is getting old and I do need something portable.
My guess is that I am not alone in my opinions and when computer tablets become more affordable there will be drove of like minded folks. Then there are those who own an iPad 1 and have been toying with the idea of an upgrade but have let the price sway their decision.
I own Macs and PCs and do not participate in arguments on which is best, they both have their pluses and minuses. I do not own any Android products though I did buy an Android based phone for my daughter and it is quite nice. Google has some of the best talent money can buy so my bet is that the Android 4.0 tablet will stir the market in a big way. It will be interesting for sure.

Laptop keyboard covers are essential accessories if you wish to maintain a proper aspect and functionality of your device. They protect laptop keyboards from dust, liquids, superficial mechanical shock and other risks of exposure. This means their lives can sometimes be saved or at least extended. One of the most loved advantages of laptop keyboard covers is they diminish the typing sound some of us might find annoying. They make typing a pleasant, cleaner and quieter experience and help users make the most of their computers. There is a large range of

Another heavyweight contender from ASUS, the Asus G74 is here to risk it all for the title of best gaming laptop! It’s a part of the Republic of Gamers product line.
