TabCo is Fusion Garage, Grid 10 is the new JooJoo Tablet as we predicted!

The wait is finally over. TabCo has shown its true colors and has revealed itself to be Fusion Garage, (as we predicted) and amazingly they have had the financial backing to release ANOTHER tablet. This time around its powered by the “Grid OS with Android application” – meaning that it can run Android applications.

The tablet itself does in fact bring a slew of hardware advancements to the 10.1″ Tablet scene. With a 4 point Capacitive Touch Panel and a 1366 x 768 resolution display this tablet is already slightly ahead of the pack.  It is powered by the Nvidia Tegra II 1.2GHz Dual Core SOC however unlike its Android Honeycomb competitors it only has 512Mb of RAM. It features a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera, built in microphone, two 0.5 watt “loudspeakers”, combined 3.5mm headphone and mic jack. As for storage you are looking at 16GB of internal flash memory expandable by Micro SD card.

Moving on to wireless options and this is where this tablet truly packs a punch. Standard 802.11 B/G/N Wi-Fi is complemented by Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, and then it gets really crazy with its Quad band 3G (HSDPA) and Quad band GSM. Of course the real treat here is the Micro SIM card slot and this should be loads of fun to deal with when changing networks. Other sensors include GPS/AGPS, Accelerometer, Ambient Light and 3 axis Gyroscope. A 5800mAh battery keeps this tablet juiced. Now as for the pricing, the 16GB Wi-Fi version is $499  and the 16GB Wi-Fi + 3G is $599. It will Ship on September 15th. Now to get some hands on time.
