I ordered one of these cheap 7" Chinese Android tablets to see what Android 1.6 on a tablet was like for a project we're doing at work.
We're registered iPad developers, so this is interesting to see the other side.
Anyway - I didn't care what one or where it came from, so I organised one through eBay from a seller I'd never heard of before. The 7" "aPad" was AU$123 including shipping via EMS to my door in Sydney.
I ordered it late Thursday afternoon (21st) and it arrived here on my doorstep this morning on the 25th. There's even a weekend in between to boot.
How amazing is that - from Shanghai to Sydney in one working day - and for $6 of the $123 total. Simply incredible.
Now - after using it for the past couple of hours I think that the iPad is safe for a while yet....
