The Aakash tablet was unveiled amidst pomp and splendor as the world's most affordable tablet. India is a price sensitive market, and the guys at Datawind tried to woo this sentiment with their affordable tech device. Although the key motive was to build a value for money, educational device, the product soon became a rage and geared up for commercial sale, way too quickly, we must say. Although the price, which is its key feature, undisputedly, managed to enthuse the nation. How Datawind managed to sum up a 7-inch tablet at an affordable price is still a mystery to some. A device featuring a 7-inch display (be it resistive), two USB ports and 3 hours of battery, to name a few, within a price that reads Rs. 2,500 seems a little unconvincing.
