HP has formally announced their entry into the Android tablet space with this, the HP Slate 7. The 7-inch Slate 7 isn't intended to be a high end, bleeding edge tablet, but it is only $169. So, spec wise, what do we get for that low, low price.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
7-inch 1024x600 HFFS display
1.6 GHz dual-core A9 processor
1GB of RAM
8GB on-board storage
microSD card slot
3MP rear camera
VGA front facing camera
Beats Audio
HP ePrint application

HP are getting on the cool-train with the stupid young tech-kids.

People love the Dre Beats in certain laptop models.

It would be pretty good.

If you get beats in your car, it would be so awesome that you would have to stop the car to beat the beats.
I want a 7" tablet that has minimal screen wasted at either sides. I hate the big fat black borders on them.

Needs a IPS 1280x720 screen, and its a go. Other than that its nice. But given you can buy a tablet with an 720 IPS screen for pretty much the same price, not sure why you would go for it.

^Pretty much.

8GB internal... Really?!
3MP Camera... Really?!

These are things that cost nothing. The only mildly cool thing is printing ability, but I'd use that maybe once, ever.

What a piece of shit.

Fuck you HP.

Make something good for once. Your AIOs suck, your laptops suck, your tablets suck.

If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

As much as i'd hate to admit HP have made something good, their toaster thin clients are quite awesome despite the label saying "Produck of China" on the dvi adapters o-o

They also make some of the best Grand format printers in the market...... it sort of helps that they purchased all their big competitors and started selling them as HP.
