Foxconn is part of the Open Handset Alliance, if this isn't "Google certified" they'd get slapped with a huge fine.

"iPad Mini inspired" is a bunch of shit

It's a rectangle with a screen, of course it's going to look like another rectangle with the same sized screen.

At least it wasn't inspired to have shitty specs like the Mini.
 
If it's decent enough, has all the Google stuff if it makes its way westwards, and you're not too fussed about which OS you're using, this sounds like a great deal, providing the price tag after tax isn't suddenly inflated considerably in your market. Who cares if it looks a bit like the iPad Mini. The Mini forfeited its status this year when Apple came out with the comically rip-off Mini 3 while its virtually identical predecessor is £80/$100 cheaper.

AP update:


Update #1: According to Gigaom and an Intel representative we reached out to, the N1 will indeed ship with Google apps, such as the Play Store. This is great news for everyone who started to reconsider getting this tablet just because it may not have gapps.

Update #2: John Kneeland, a Nokia PM, says the tablet's hardware and software were designed and implemented by Nokia, with manufacturing being handled by Foxconn. This fact should silence the critics who were quick to accuse the N1 of not being a "true" Nokia device but rather a rebranded variant of some other tablet.

If the screen and battery life are good, this looks like a great value. Throw Nova Launcher on it, and you are good to go.

Meh, re-release the 3310 with the original OS but a modern battery and and micro-USB charger. Sell it at a premium, escape from Microsoft.

Best snake and spece impact :(

Please, let this be stock Android, no OEM Skin.

(Launcher doesn't count. I want to throw the Google Now Launcher on there and have a Nexus experience).

I ask that somebody please make a thread about the Jolla tablet, it was announced today, has a indiegogo kickstarter well ahead already on half a million, and it costs 50 less than Nokia's tablet
