In a country like India where the number of consumers is just mind-bogglingly huge and the number of people with income to spend on gadgets in only increasing, mass-producing a device and making money off volume sales with a low price-point is seeing previously unheard of price barriers busted open.The new "Ira" tablet "features 7 inch resistive display, 800MHz VIA WonderMedia ARM SoC , Wi-Fi connectivity, 2GB internal memory, 512MB RAM, 3G modem support via USB, 3.5mm audio jack and a 2800 mAh battery. It is being sold at Rs 4,000."
Rs 4,000 is just $78 USD. I bought a tablet with a very similar spec about 18 months ago for $280. Incredible!
