If Google Translate isn’t missing something here, then we could see as early as this summer a $99 Windows 8 tablet with built-in 3G. What’s really hard to believe is that Endmoor says there will be an even cheaper version at only $60.
The purported cheap Windows 8 tablet is said to arrive with a 7-inch screen, 1024 x 600 pixel resolution, 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. Yes, these are the minimum requirements need to barely sustain the Windows operating system and let you access the Windows Store. It hasn’t been mentioned whether they would be running on Windows 8.1 or Windows RT, but since the system requirements for Windows 8.1 have become so low, it’s no point on going on with Windows RT. The idea of releasing a free Windows version for smaller tablets coupled with Intel’s dirty cheap low-power kernels might be the winning bet against the rising number of cheap Android tablets. The ability to run desktop apps at such an unbelievably low price will definitely drive consumer pull. And imagine that these cheap tablets come with a USB port or even HDMI, to attach a keyboard, mouse or second display – then it becomes a really interesting proposition to the user.
