ViewSonic has outed the ViewPad 7e in an already crowded tablet market. The new entrant is based on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) rather than Android 3.0 (Honeycomb). It features a ViewScene 3D UI on top of the stock Android OS. According to the company, its customisation offers a new spin to the experience through a fully configurable, holographic environment. Viewsonic has avoided the mention of Android Market in its website, which implies that it may not have access to it. This isn't a deal-breaker though, as you can still download the apps from Amazon's Appstore.
The device is powered by a 1 GHz ARM A8 CPU and has 512 MB RAM. Its 7" LED-lit LCD has pixel dimensions of 800x600 and contrast a ratio of 500:1. Other bells and whistles include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a 3.5 mm audio jack, Micro-HDMI, a microSD card slot, 3 MP rear and 0.3 MP front camera, and a 3300 mAh battery. The tablet measures 7.6" (l) x 5.2" (w) x 0.6" (d) and weighs 450 grammes.
The 7e is expected to go retail in the US by the end of this month, with a price tag of $200 (approx Rs 10,000). However, there's no word on its availability in India as of this writing.
