NOTION INK ANNOUNCES ADAM II WITH TI OMAP 4 CPU AND ANDROID 4.0

Notion Ink has announced its plans to build a second generation Adam tablet. The Adam II will have a Texas Instruments OMAP 4 processor and PowerVR graphics. It will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system.


The original Adam was the first tablet to launch with a NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual core processor and optional Pixel Qi low power sunlight readable display. While the tablet had excellent hardware, it was only produced in limited quantities. You still can’t walk into a store and buy and Adam tablet.

The Adam II too in unlikely to be produced in large quantities. It won’t be the first tablet to ship with TI OMAP 4 processor or Android 4.0 OS either. Nonetheless it does have a few impressive features. Notion Ink says that Adam II will have a ‘Modular Based Software Architecture’ which will allow app developers to build apps using company’s development tools.
No word on pricing or availability at the moment.
