a 10 inch tab would cost more that 200 obviously. But it is a great start i believe. Once the technology catches up a bit more next year or the year after tablets will become cheaper do to the competitiveness of google getting in the tablet game.

only detail I got out of him was 7″, T3 cpu, 1280×800 resolution, and goal is to release it with next version of android but they are having issues with the kernel and compatibility. He said goal is $199 or less.

He said there were a couple of different screens on the prototypes. The one he has in hand had a 1280×800 resolution

You know, I wasn’t too sure about a 7″ one before I got it either. I already had a 10″ ASUS Transformer and my wife and daughter always wanted to use it so I picked up a cheap Acer A100 for $190 for them and I honestly find that I use it way more. It is a nice size to hold and it is still small enough to fit in a jacket pocket or small bag. Now that it has been upgraded to ICS it actually outscores my Transformer in Quadrant. I can’t wait for this new higher end yet still low priced tablet to come out.

I once thought the same thing until I purchased a Kindle Fire for $139 and loaded AOKP on it. I think that 7″ is a pretty ideal size, I get a ton of use out of it. I now wonder if I would even want a 10″ tablet.

I’ll most definitely be buying this if the screen is nice enough and an acceptable resolution, the built-in storage is either 16GB or at least has a microSD slot for expandability, and it’s thin and light-weight enough. I’ve used several 10″ and 7″ tablets and even with my 4.3″ Thunderbolt, I would actually prefer a 7″ over a 10″ if the resolution is right.

Any word on screen resolution?

If they go with a 7 inch tablet, then it’s pretty obvious that they’re going after the Kindle space. Especially with the introduction of subscriptions in the Google Play store. Personally, I’d rather have a 8.9 to 10.1 like Nexus tablet.

I think the weight is more of a factor than screen size. The ipad is a little to heavy to hold in one hand (while looking at it) after a while. I think the lighter 7″ devices are better for portability. But if someone makes an ipad screen size device that’s much lighter, that would be a killer product.
