Tablet devices are generally low-end devices that are suitable for reading eBooks or casual web browsing, but sometimes you want something a little more powerful, the eviGroup Paddle could be the device to offer that. We first checked it out back in March, and now it’s already available for purchase, albeit at a rather expensive price. Prices range from EUR599 to EUR699 ($732 to $854), and the cheapest model doesn’t even sport a 3G modem or operating system, while the top-end model sports a 3G modem and Windows 7 Home Premium. Other technical specifications of the device include:
- 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor
- 1GB of RAM
- 160GB hard drive
- 10.6-inch 1024 x 600 pixel capacitive touchscreen display
- Wi-Fi a/b/g
- Ethernet
- 2.5 to 3-hour battery life (pitiful)
- 3x USB ports
- VGA output
- Built-in memory card reader
