Amtrak cheap tablets for students

July 14, 2013 by Tablet Guru Leave a Comment

The Indian Android product company Amtrak Info System Pvt. Ltd. (AISPL), has recently unveiled education tablets for the state of Rajasthan. The My Class Buddy A700 E is being offered for Rs. 6,299 (play-mate worth Rs. 899 included) and will be available via leading stationary shops and electronics stores in Rajasthan. My Class Buddy-A 700 E comes with Android 4.0 (ICS) and is powered by a Cortex-A8 1.0 Ghz Single Core Processor, which is supported by 512 MB of RAM. The display is an 800 X 400, 7″ Capacitive Multi Touch with a DPI of 160. Graphics will be handled by a capable Mali 400. The device has an internal user accessible memory of 4 GB that can be expanded upto 32 GB via microSD.

Compared to the previously popular Aakash Tablet (from a Canadian company, DataWind), the My Class Buddy A700 E outshines the former in all aspects. The Aakash only has a 700 MHz processor, poor display and just 2 GB of internal memory. Where the Aakash is nowhere in stock, Amtrak has given customers an option to prebook their tablet for just Rs. 500 and it will be delivered within 21 days. In addition, the tablet offers unlimited cloud storage for a lifetime, courtesy eNlight Space. Students can now store all of their homework, assignments and e-books directly on the cloud if they run out of device storage. Find a detailed list of its features below:-

Barnes and Noble: The Nook HD+ for those who want more( Snap it up! Prices slashed for limited time only)

June 11, 2013 by Tablet Guru Leave a Comment

Nook HD+|9 inch| Discount — It’s Father’s Day Special Week for us.

Off late we had the Nook HD from the makers, Barnes and Noble. Now, let’s zero on a bigger and better(for many) Tablet PC from the same family. No points for guessing, we are talking about the Nook HD+ . On contrary to the Nook HD which is posing hefty competition to Kindle Fire, Nook HD+ doesn’t have any arch rival as such. Instead it is a Tab in a segment where quality products are co-existing in utmost harmony. Still, let’s have a few or more reasons to get it on our shopping carts.

Nook HD+ is a 9 inch sub-giant tablet which runs on Android’s 4.0 version and sports a real immersive display. The Tab is swift with the 1.5GHz processor and 1 GB RAM. Battery back up is good with the makers claiming 10hrs of reading support. The Nook HD+ TAb is available in two variants- 16GB and 32GB internal.

Further have a look at the below table for more info over this Tablet PC:-

Barnes and Noble: The Nook HD. Is it better than Kindle Fire?

June 7, 2013 by Tablet Guru Leave a Comment

Get heavy discount on a Nook HD Tablet PC, only for this week. So, buy one right-away. Check-out the link at the end to reach its online store.

Nook HD|eReader|$199 — Better than the Best!

Okay! First and foremost, apologies for so royally ignoring the Barnes and Noble Tablet PCs on our website. But it’s never too late for you to order one. Not sure? We will give a few convincing reasons for these compelling Tablet PCs out there with the names Nook HD and Nook HD+ . The former is a 7 inch Tab and the latter boasts a 9 inch screen.Let’s concentrate here on the Nook HD only and see the Nook HD+ seperately.

The first question which pops up into your minds, when you have spent a few minutes with the Nook HD is, “Is it better than Kindle?”. This is very natural because the display, weight, design and all which strikes first in a Tablet PC are made top quality inside a Nook HD. And when you happen to know about the price, you are almost sure that you are going to pick it over Amazon’s Kindle Fire, any-day. But still, one can take nothing away for the Kindle Fire when it comes to a friendlier usability and performance. Both have their stronger points and slight edges over each other. But believe it or not, the differences are so subtle that you will find it extremely okay and harmless to ignore all of them. Earlier, the Nook HD didn’t have room for Google Play but now even this is an old story. The presence of Google Play store which holds over 700,000 Apps, enables the Nook HD to become as strong as any other Android Tablet PC when it comes to the App support.

The Nook, just like the more famous Kindle Tab, is an eReader and is getting popular amongst those who prefer the physical buttons on a Tab to the every-time pulling up shortcut buttons/gestures on the screen.

The acronym HD suffixed to Nook is very justified as we don’t see many Tabs out there which come with an engrossing display as much of the Nook HD.

And now let’s have a look on the specs and features of the Nook HD tabs with their best prices.

SPECIFICATIONS:	FEATURES:
OS	Android 4.0
Screen & Display	7 inch HDWVGA multi touch capacitive screen,1440×900 pixels,243ppiIPS LCD

Lenevo ThinkPad Helix: The new era engineering!

May 27, 2013 by Tablet Guru Leave a Comment

Lenevo ThinkPad Helix| Four display options|2 variants — with 4 display options..

It’s a well known fact that we love working on a Laptop but, however, viewing objects is much more relished on the Tablet PCs. This is the thing which is driving all the Tablet PC/Laptop manufacturers to take up both the production simultaneously, in a single machine! All I mean here, is a tablet cum laptop, a hybrid device which serves both the interests.

Lenevo, a leading PC manufacturer, is already bringing such hybrids in the market. We already have seen “Lenevo ThinkPad Twist” exhibiting a dual characteristics, justifying its convertible section. Next it’s the even better “Lenevo ThinkPad Helix“. This is the latest in the ThinkPad line of computers and is now available for all you ThinkPad fans in the United States of America. But before you invest your money in this Tablet PC/Laptop (whatever makes you happy!) , here are the highlights of this piece of engineering.

No.1 : Unlike many other hybrids, with Helix one can “rip and flip” the screen and then dock it back on the keyboard. The advantage is obvious, extra battery life. FYI, the screen when when used a standalone tablet pc, the battery goes for around 6 hours. On the other hand, if the screen remains docked in the keyboard, one gets additional 4 hours support, when full charged. Moreover, one has more connectivity ports to serve.

So, now you have much extra time tied to your Tablet PC mode than the previous times, when hinging the screen flat on the keyboard was not possible. But not anymore!

No. 2 : Helix is a 11.6 inch touchscreen with full HD, 1920×1080 pixel resolution to boast. Display couldn’t get any better to normal human eyes. The quality can be very mesmerizing, so, better Watch It!

No. 3 : The touchscreen houses a USB 2.0 port and a Mini DisplayPort. The keyboard dock has two USB 3.0 and a Mini DisplayPort to itself. These all sums up to lot of usability ports in coalition.

No. 4 : Weight of the ThinkPad Helix is 1.8 pounds when not docked to the keyboard( just the touchscreen). When one connects both, there is an addition of 2 pounds of weight to the complete set-up.

No. 5 : There is a choice for you. There are two high end variants available under the Helix name:-

[I] Windows 8| 2.8GHz| Intel Core i5 processor|4 GB of RAM| $1680

[2] Windows 8 Pro| 3.2 GHz| i7 processor| 8 GB of RAM| $2000

No. 6 : The base models can be customized, but obviously, with some extra payment. The i5 version comes with 128GB SSD, which can be upgraded to 180GB or 256GB. Similarly, the i7 version comes with 180GB, which can be replaced by 256GB SSD.

No. 7 : The Lenevo ThinkPad Helix can be pre-ordered now on the Lenovo’s official website. The expected ship-start date is 6 th of June, 2013. It is also expected to hit the other nation local stores, in no time.
