I came here to post this too. I "ordered" one. Hope it actually comes through since the other Plasma Active tablet out there seems to be going no where.

I think it dual boots Plasma Active. But primarily its an Android 4.0 tablet with shitty specs.

The 99 dollar price was an early bird special which is now sold out. The same thing is "available" now for 120. By the way, this looks like a kickstarter alternative project. Is there any information on who is making these devices?

How do you know?

UPDATE: Looks like it's possible. But I didn't find Mer/PlasmaActive images for it so far.

It looks better to me than originally advertised Vivaldi/Zenithink. I wonder if it's the tablet that new Vivaldi is targeting (they were pretty quiet about it so far).

For the price and the ability to easily boot from the SD card I think the specs are just fine. Hardware will impress no one, but hardware it's not really the point.

At least it's got 1 GB RAM and > 1 GHz CPU. It's already better than 512 MB Vivaldi #1.
