We've nothing much to go on outside of a few good renders and a
smattering of machine translated paragraphs, but it sure sounds as
if China Mobile is entertaining the idea of bringing a 7-inch
Android-based tablet to its airwaves. As the story goes, said slate
would boast China's
homegrown TD-SCDMA 3G connectivity, support for video calling,
a full-fledged web browser and an
OPhone operating system -- which is essentially a customized
version of android for the Chinese market. Sadly, no further
information was given, leaving us to wonder what kind of innards
are scheduled for implant and what kind of price tag / release date
we're looking at. Oh, and those "call" and "end call" buttons are
pretty darn evident, leading us to believe that China Mobile might
actually expect you to use this as your primary mobile. Can you
say... Sidetalkin'?
