Eken's 8" Android tablet

Pictured above is the Eken M003 tablet. It would be pretty hard not to concede that it's been inspired by the iPad ... but it's a different beast ... er, kitten ... large cat maybe.

The Eken M008 has an 8 inch screen which is slightly larger than the 7 inch norm for most tablets, but smaller than Apple's 10 inches. It's an LCD full color screen. It supports 32GB of storage via an SD card slot. Inside you'll find a WonderMedia chip. It run Android (of course!). It's said that it will cost about USD 230 and apparently you can get it in pink, black or white.

Eken M001

When WonderMedia issued their Press Release about cheap Android based tablets, they also put a whole bunch of photos on VIA's Gallery site of examples. So I thought I'd take a look at a few.

The image above is of an Eken M001 tablet. Inside is a WonderMedia PRIZM MW8505 @ 600MHz. It has a 7 inch display, which seems to be more popular with almost all tablet manufacturers, other than Apple. It's only got Wi-Fi connectivity but it does support up to 32GB of SD storage and has 2GB built in flash. Here's a video with more info:
