POCKETBOOK INTERNATIONAL LAUNCHES POCKETBOOK A7 ANDROID TABLET

PocketBook International has introduced a new 7 inch Android tablet called PocketBook A7. It has a 1GHz TI OMAP 3621 processor, 4GB of storage, 512MB of RAM and a 1024 x 600 pixels display. The tablet runs Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread operating system.


PocketBook International doesn’t call the A7 a tablet. The machine is positioned as a ‘multimedia reader’ and it supports a range of file formats and Adobe DRM.

In terms of looks, the PocketBook A7 isn’t all that different from the Amazon Kindle Fire or Barnes &Nooks Tablet. However, it does have a few interesting features such as Google Android Market support, 2 megapixel front-facing camera and microSDHC card slot. The 7 inch capacitive touchpanel supports multitouch inputs. No word on pricing or availability at the moment.
