[citation][nom]alyoshka[/nom]Well, these tabs are being used for Data and Census updates by the Government itself.... Haven't seen a single kid in any rural school use it until now.You find most of the Grads who have just been hired by the local govt. to collect data from the people house to house going around with these. And you know what, they still have One tab to cater for over a million people..... It is the laugh of the century if I was to see it from the eIndia POV. Where you can buy tea off the internet to a Bugatti , we still lack any sort of infrastructure to actually make these so called fancy gadgets useful at the grass root level.Even after collecting all the data, they do end up printing it on paper for the different departments of the govt. since most of them still work on the file system.My personal experience with the Dept. of Telecom , New Delhi , has been and I'd like to translate and quote the Director General Telecom's words here" Sir, you may keep harping about us going all hi-tech and dishing out all the e-services that we do to the people, but, sadly, in this department, we still function only on printed paper. We have PC's to work on and networks to handle the data, but, when it come's to working or functioning of the department, we strictly believe only in paper prints and hard copies. You can complete all the formalities online, but, they will not be held valid until you provide a printed copy of everything to us."And believe me, the time it takes to get one piece of paper to move from one level to another is like going around the world on a camel and still being faster.So all the crap about it being a 35 to 45 $ tab is really ..... dunno....like a bollywood movie.... nothing real all in the head.[/citation]

You cannot see graduates holding this tablet coz u r not from IIT..Secondly,first wave of the tablet was not so good and the launch was recalled..This upgraded version has so much in it..Though it cannot stand in front of very high end tabs like that of apple but is more than sufficient for education purpose..Bloody traitor..
