Velocity Micro Cruz Tablet T301: The Top 5 Most Promising Features

Velocity Micro recently released the follow-up for their popular Cruz mobile tablet, the Velocity Micro Cruz Tablet T301, which will give users a bigger bang for their buck and host several new features that weren't found on the original Cruz tablet.

Price

Let's face it; most consumers that are checking out the Velocity Micro Cruz Tablet T301 are doing so because of its surprisingly low price.

Fortunately, the Velocity Micro Cruz Tablet T301 is aggressively priced at only $199, and at $199, the Cruz Tablet T301 costs less than half as much as the entry level iPad 2.

Hardware

At the budget price of $199, it's surprising that the Velocity Micro Cruz Tablet T301 turns on at all, but even more surprising is the great hardware under this tablets hood. The Cruz Tablet T301 features 256MB of RAM, 4GB of integrated flash memory, wireless 802.11 b/g/n connectivity, and a lithium ion battery.

Android 2.2

Android 2.2 isn't usually a feature to rave about '" especially considering that Android 2.3 Gingerbread is out '" but most other tablets under $300 feature some sort of generic operating system with limited features. Android 2.2 is a serious perk of the Velocity Micro Cruz Tablet T301 and allows its user base to have full access to the Android Market and take full advantage of the setting and user interface provided by Android 2.2.

Vibrant 7" Touchscreen Display
