Chakkar mein e mat pade Samar...... 2200 ki cheez kitna chaalegi... tenne bhi bera s er menne bhi.............. Yoh saara saang is desh ka fuddu kaatan ka s.......
There will be no support if things go wrong. What about data security etc in this kind of crap piece. You never know what it will support in terms of browser etc and what not. You can not upgrade the software. Which operating system it has. God knows when the launching company will stop supporting it....
Do you think, govt or any of so called small companies have guts to do extensive research to make a great tablet? Nahi.....
Buy an iPad - may be lowest range if budget is the constraint - 16 GB will suffice for normal use - at least you will have peace of mind that your data is safe, you will get support whenever needed and it will not crash every now and then.
Er 2200 faaltu ho re sein to menne de de bhai !

"Aakash is much below our expectations," said an IIT student, who has used the device for a month.

May be wait for next release of Aakash - Aakash - 2 which will have 1 GB of RAM. But that will cost you more
