Engadget: Not kosher with ponying up $500+ for an Android tablet? You've got options, kid. Velocity Micro's Cruz Tablet has finally hit the shipping stage, and sure enough, it's doing so in the month that was promised back in September. $299.99 lands you a 7-inch Android 2.0 tablet with an 800 x 480 capacitive touch panel, 512MB of RAM, 12GB of total storage, 802.11n WiFi, inbuilt speakers, a headphone jack, mini-USB port and a rechargeable Li-ion good for around ten hours of use -- or so they say.
AppSplit: "Velocity Micro is ready to launch new tablets with the new year. Company has released some latest info on two new tablets, T507 and T510. It’s an upgrade for its existing tablets, these tablets will be up on display at the CES 2012."
You can buy any of these tablets directly from Velocity Micro’s Webstore or you can wait for your local retailers to start selling these tablets [pretty soon]. The T408 will cost you exactly $199.99 and the 10-inch T410 costs $299.99.
I think I have found my tablet choice. I don't want to dip my feet too deep into the tablet ocean but at a price that good I don't see whats wrong. Kindle fire might be an option I will have to wait for the reviews but this might just be what I get myself for xmas :D.
Laptoping - Velocity Micro’s Cruz T301, a new version of their 7-inch Android OS tablet device, is now available.
