OlivePad the PC in your pocket Review and Price

If you are looking for a cheaper alternative to the Apple iPad that is priced at starting Rs. 27,900 OlivePad is the best option. OlivePad claims to be the first Indian pad (without the ‘i’) that runs almost every application powered by 3.5G Google Android 2.2 (Froyo) OS.

A 16GB Apple iPad will cost you RS. 27,900 in India, where as the OlivePad with 16GB memory card comes for just Rs. 23,990. Technically it is not right to compare the iPad with the Pad and the only thing that matters is the price difference. If you cannot afford the iPad go for the OlivePad but remember the OS is different and the gadget may not be as sleek as the iPad.

But hey it is India’s first 3G tablet and it can be used as a Smartphone, camera, a TV, for watching movies, listing to music and as a GPS navigator.

Google Android is slowing catching up and is the most preferred mobile OS. Every system that houses this operating system gets access to host of Google services plus android market place where users can find thousands of useful applications most of which are free.
