With
China Unicom getting the iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4 and presumably the
3G iPad soon (after reading this it makes sense) its likely
China Mobile are seething a little.
So they’re launching a
7 inch tablet running
Android 2.2.
China Mobile will be
marketing their LifePad as a more more portable alternative to the popular Apple
iPad and have spec’d it with
GPS, 3G and Mobile Market
access. Previous prototypes had
ARM Cortex A8 CPU’s but it’s not been sure if these are still in place.
The mid sized LifePad is still under development, but is expected to launch early June and
cost less than 3000 Yuan ($450).
