achilles Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 They were offering it for 1,500 bucks recently. Thanfully, I didn't order coz they seem to be clearing the old stock before a better version, Aakash 2 hits the market, which would be sometime this year.
ganeshran Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 That's not android Its Android based. They have not used the stock UI and written their own.
Jersey #10 Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Its Android based. They have not used the stock UI and written their own. The picture looks like it's webOS. It was developed by Palm and then bought by HP for their touchpads which were later dumped.
