Apple is hogging the limelight once again after the launch of its much touted internet tablet iPad but it has a challenger from India. A tablet PC built by an IIT Kharagpur student named Rohan Shravan can give Apple’s cute device a run for its money, provided it gets properly marketed and promoted. He has made an indigenously built Tablet PC named Adam. He has a company named Notion Ink which is going to market the product in the near future. It scores over the Apple iPad with its better battery life and features. The USP of the Adam PC is of course its affordable price tag. The device was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and the CES in recent times. In both the places it became a show stealer.The Adam PC addresses the shortcomings that are there in the Apple iPad.
The device was in the making for three years and now the inventor is happy with the final product. It has been built to suit the needs of various types of users. The Adam Tablet was slated for a June release. However, some minor issues may delay its release. The company reportedly is working on the Flash support. If this can be incorporated it can offer steep competition to the iPad which presently lacks flash support. The slate can deal with 1080p HD video playback which gives it an edge over most present generation netbooks.The Adam PC will be released in some variants. All of them are supposed to be cheaper than Apple iPad.The device is coupled with a 3-cell battery with a backup power upto 140-hours of audio playback and over 16-hours of HD video playback.
The company also confirms that ADAM will support Chromium and Ubuntu OS along with the current Android OS in the near future and they are in a plan to include GSM functionality in their future versions.There is no word on pricing and when the device would launch into the market.Let’s wait for some more time and keep your nerves under control, what miracle the ADAM does and how far it impresses the end users amid the successful competitive products around it. According to the rumors, the device is expected to reach on to your palms by June/July.
