It’s definitely not the United States who is making this possible.
And guess what? It’s not the China. It’s India who has pioneered to create a Android powered Tablet computer for just $35.

In the first generation in tablet PC’s, they were very expensive and regular people could not afford the price. And then many of the computer peripheral manufactures entered to the market and since the competition went hot, tablet PC prices went down making it possible to afford for regular people.
China made a big difference in the tablet PC market. They manufactured low cost tablet PC’s giving the European manufactures a good competition. Most of those Chinese tablet PC’s sold out under $100.
India is the next competitor who is always looking to give good things for a good price. With the success of manufacturing the cheapest motor car, they showed the world that India is the next “China”.
Ubislate is a product of Datawind who is operating from the India. This is recorded as the cheapest Android tablet ever made. And it is sold to Indian students under the name of Aakash for just $35. And the commercial version of Aakash is named Ubislate which is only $60.
This tablet PC is powered with Android version 2.3. And is running on a Cortex A8, 700 Mhz Processor.

This is a big revolution to the tablet PC market. We can hope for a decrease of price for tablet PC’s thanks to Aakash.
Since most of people are worrying about the quality of the device, I think this is not a “low quality” product. Aakash has already won quality certifications from,
- Government of India, Department of IT — Standardization Testing and Quality Certification Directorate
- Bureau Veritas Quality International (BVQI) – now known as Bureau Veritas Certification (BVC)
- Ministry of Human Resources and Development, Government of India
So I guess, this worth the price even we can’t get the student version –Aakash for $35. $60 is worth paying for while spending hundreds of dollars to buy a tablet PC.
