ViewSonic’s ViewPad 7x, the 7-inch Android tablet that was announced back in May, is heading to Europe where it will be available for 350 EUR, which is pretty affordable by Europe’s standards (gadgets cost much less in the U.S.). That money gets you a device that’s pretty comparable with the Acer Iconia Tab A100, rocking NVidia’s Tegra 2 dual-core processor, Android 3.2 and a 1024×600 pixels, 10-point multi-touch display. In addition, it also comes with dual cameras (one on the back and a front-facing one), Wi-Fi connectivity, Bluetooth and other “standard for an Android tablet” goodies.
The bad news is that we’ve no idea when exactly ViewSonic will start selling its baby. We do hope that will happen sooner rather than later. What’s more, we hope to see other OEMs launching their own 7-inch tablets, like the Asus MeMO and Huawei MediaPad. I’m quite confident I’m not the only one looking for a “smaller than 10-inch” tablet. It’s so much easier to carry around…
