Talking about its recently launched low-cost UbiSlate 7+ and 7c tablets, Datawind CEO Sunil Singh Tuli said that the company had received around 3.4 million pre-orders for the UbiSlate 7+ tablet. And, the delivery has been taking place since April 26.

As far as the UbiSlate 7c model is concerned, the company has started taking pre-orders beginning the last week of June, and the delivery for the same will begin by the middle of this month, said Tuli.

He also said that the company is planning to introduce the Android ICS-based UbiSlate tablets in August. “And, if IIT Bombay agrees in the future, we might also come up with the Android ICS-powered Aakash tablet,” Tuli said.

The UbiSlate Smartphone/tablets incorporate HD video coprocessors for a high-quality multimedia experience and core graphics accelerator for faster application support. These tablets are the only Android devices in the market to offer DataWind UbiSurfer browser, based on 18 international patents. The UbiSurfer browser accelerates web pages by factors of 10x to 30x, allowing for a web experience whose speed is unrivalled. Internet access is available everywhere on a GPRS network at Rs.98/mo. for 2GB

The devices include WiFi & GPRS connectivity allowing anytime & anywhere internet access and phone functionality. Optional 3G modems are also supported via USB. In addition to a micro-SD card slot, a full-sized USB port is integrated into the unit allowing pen-drives, external keyboards, webcams, dongles and other inexpensive peripherals to be attached.
