The much awaited India’s ultra low cost Aakash tablet is finally here and is creating ripples all around. Datawind launched Ubislate7 in India, and the student version is named as the Aakash tablet. It offers a web delivery platform that enables quality and interactive knowledge over the internet.
The CEO of DataWind, Mr. Suneet Singh Tuli says ‘This is a made-in-India product. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to do this.’ He adds, ‘The final goal is to either provide the same features at a lower cost or provide better functionality and features at the same cost.’
The team of engineers at Datawind has come up with the upgraded version of the Aakash tablet. This upgraded version of Aakash is called Ubislate7+ and it will be made available for all.
The Minister for Human Resource and Development, Mr. Kapil Sibal, said at the launch of Aakash, "The rich have access to the digital world, the poor and ordinary have been excluded. Aakash will end that digital divide."
There is definitely no other touch pad tablet or computing device anywhere near the price of Aakash tablet or Ubislate7+. It is a new generation device which comes with attractive features.
Ubislate 7+ cost and specs-
Cost : Rs.2,999/- (Around 35-40$)
Specs :-
Microprocessor : Cortex A8 – 700 Mhz
Battery : Cortex A8 – 700 Mhz

IIRC, no need of jailbreaking or anything since I saw in a newspaper that the tablet producers are giving the source code or something and letting devs create homebrews and stuff.
Def. gonna buy this given that the PSV cannot call.
