Digilink readies up well loaded 8-inch Android 4 tablet for cheap

Details of a cheap yet respectably specd up 8-inch tablet from Digilink have surfaced online, with the folks over at Netbook news providing a video preview for us ahead of launch.

The Android 4.0 ICS running tablet with a presumed model name of DI-807H runs a 1.2GHz Boxchip A10 processor (w/ Mali 400 GPU), 512MB RAM, 4GB NAND flash storage, IPS capacitive touchscreen with a resolution of 1024 x 768 and a microSD card slot accepting up to 32GB cards.

The tablet has a thickness of 11.9mm and build quality is apparently very impressive given its presumed price point. It also boasts a pretty beefy 5600mA battery. Other features include Mini USB and Mini HDMI connectivity, a 0.3MP front facing and 2MP rear facing camera, audio jack and an accelerometer. There is no 3G or Bluetooth connectivity built-in, but it does of course have WiFi.

Based on the confirmed cost of US $93 each when purchasing 500 units, the retail price is expected to come in at somewhere around US $120.

ATi Licensed HDMI Technology

ATI licensed HDMI high-bandwidth technology from Analogix Semiconductor, the two companies announced on Monday. The High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a method to pass uncompressed video between consumer-electronic devices such as a set-top box, DVD player, or television. The total bandwidth the standard allows is 5 gigabits per second. The Analogix deal means that ATI will be able to design in support for the HDMI technology into its products, most likely its All-In-Wonder line of graphics and video cards.
