The Akash Tablet is now here folks! Akash means sky in Hindi and the $35 tablet has arrived. It is the worlds cheapest tablet and runs on Android 2.2 software! As we all know, India isn't the richest country in the world but is now helping it's people to get their hands on the new tech. The average house hold income in India is less then $1000 USD. Most of the people cannot afford to pay $600 for and iPad, so I think this is a great product for residents of India. The 7 inch tablet is 350 grams, while the iPad 2 with WiFi is 600 grams.
