Our First 7” Android Tablet is Now in Hand. First Impressions – Look out Kindle

August 20, 2010 By

We just got our hands on the Augen Gentouch 7” Android tablet today. A full review will follow after we spend the weekend playing.

We will let you know after a few days testing, but on first impressions, at 1/4 the price and running Kindle, Google maps, and as a twitter client, it is off to a great start.
