    I wonder which OS it will be using. But none the less, is a great product for those who cannot afford the real iPad or for those who do not want to waste so much money on an iPad.

    I donno if it’s a misconception or not, but where I live and I believe not only in my country, what is cheap is not of good quality either.

    How does this tablet live up to the expectations of the possible buyers?

    This one is for folks who cant afford too many fancy features. There is going to be another costly version with more features.
