I am pretty sure you have heard about the Apple iPad, but what about the aPad device from Shenzhen, China? It is a iPad clone at a significantly cheaper price than the iPad.
The biggest difference between the two, is that the aPad runs on Android OS, rather than Apple’s iPhone OS. As you should know by now though, Android is no lightweight and the device packs some handy specs.
It features a 7-inch touchscreen display with 800×430 resolution, a 600 MHz RockChip 2808A processor with 1GB of Memory, MicroSD support, 802.11b/g WiFi, HD video playback, 3.5mm jack and one-click access to YouTube. Since it is running Android, you’ll also get a collection of Google apps, such as the Chrome browser, Google Maps and Google Talk.
And the most exciting part is that you can buy it as low as $149 USD. If you compare that to the $499 asking price for the 16GB WiFi iPad, but of course, you can't beat iPad! However you must also consider this significant features and whether the features are what you need.

I'm not too keen on jumping on the tablet bandwagon myself...
But if I had to choose. I'd go for the Ipad.
No one comes close to Apple's aesthetics and build quality
can't afford for Ipad :( I don't also feel that the price justifies its functionality...hehe:D
