Datawind Ubislate 3G7: New tablet of Aakash makers spotted - The Mobile Indian

Couple of days after the Government of India promised to launch Aakash 4 tablet, a new tablet of Datawind - which ironically made the previous versions of Aakash tablet - has been spotted.

Technology focused website, Engadget, claimed to have spotted the tablet - called Datawind Ubislate 3G7 - on the FCC's (Federal Communication Commission) website.

As per the listing the Datawind Ubislate 3G7 has quad band GPRS and tri-band HSPA+">HSPA connectivity. Besides, it has WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0, micro SD card slot and a 2 megapixel front camera. Not much information about the tablet is available as of now.

Notably, last week Kapil Sibal, the Communication and Information Technology Minister of Government of India, told that Aakash 4 is all set to be launched January next. He also went on to say that 12 manufacturers have showed interest in the tablet whose specifications have been freezed.

Aakash is first in a series of Android-based tablet computers promoted by Government of India as part of an initiative to link 25,000 colleges and 400 universities in an e-learning program. The first three versions, which were heavily criticised for non-availability and quality, were made by DataWind.

In view of the uproar, the Government of India in July this year came out with a proposed list of minimum features for the upcoming Aakash 4 and as per analysts, if the tablet indeed comes with the set of proposed features then it would be an attractive low cost tablet. You can check the proposed specifications of Aakash 4 here.

So it would be interesting to see if government launches this purported Ubislate 3G7 as Aakash 4 or bring a whole new product from a different manufacturer.
