ViewSonic outs Android ViewPad 7

Android ViewPad 7

There’s not much in the way of extra information about the hardware to be gleaned, beyond the front-facing webcam, what looks to be a microphone on the side, and the usual Android buttons (in this case touch-sensitive) running down the bezel. However it looks like it could be a little thicker than the Samsung Galaxy Tab, though we’ll have to wait foViewSonic is throwing its hat into the Android tablet ring with a 7-inch offering called ViewPad.

The tablet will be made official at this year's upcoming IFA. So far, confirmed specs include a 7-inch screen, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, microSD memory expansion, microphone, speaker, 3.5mm headphone jack, mini USB, and both front- and rear-facing cameras.

Pricing, capacity, and availability are yet to be determined, as is the specific version of Android the device will ship with. The image shown here, provided by ViewSonic, is a computer rendering of the device powered off, offering no hint of how Android will be implemented. The image does show a strip of touch-sensitive buttons down the right bezel of the screen, which seems to be typical for most Android-powered hardware.

A 10-inch tablet capable of booting both Android and Windows 7 is reportedly in the works as well. actual specifications of both units before we can know for sure.
