After Shezen’s P88 and Germany’s WePad, iPad now has another "competitor"- Meizu’s mBook! Meizu, a portable media device developer company from China has launched another "cloning" war on Apple iPad by releasing the specification of their development tablet PC named as the mBook (at least temporarily). The mBook has a 8.4-inch capacitive touchscreen display with XGA (1024×768) resolution. Being just 210mm x 140mm x 14mm in dimensions, it’s significantly smaller than the iPad. The graphical impression of mBook is shown as below:
This device is expected to feature high-quality music playback and also to give the users 12 long hours of battery life on a single charge. The mBook will also have built-in 3G for better connectivity and location-aware GPS navigation system. It is preloaded with Android Operating System with customised GUI for larger capacitive touch screen display. On the plus side, Meizu has included HDMI connector for Full HD capability.
However, mBook specs are still premature as it is still under development. According to Meizu, mBook is scheduled to be officially released early 2011. By then, we could expect Apple to come out with an improved iPad (well hopefully).
