Since the debut of affordable Aakash Tablet , any number of manufacturers have announced launch of similar products
This is all very good for the Indian users , since competition always brings out the best amongst the competitors in terms of quality / service etc
But for the moment , users are confused as to the price-points vs specifications of various manufacturers
It would be nice if some independent authority can develop / publish , a comparison of various tablets in terms of ,
Network Compatibility [ WiFi – 3G – GPRS Modem etc ]
Processor Speeds [ Over clocking / Architecture ]
Operating Systems [ Open vs Closed ]
USB Ports [ Full size vs Mini ]
Screen Type [ Resistive vs Capacitive ]
Import content vs local value addition
Price
May be an “ Index / Score “ can be developed which can rank all competing tablets on a score of 0 – 10 , taking all the above – mentioned factors into account ( with each factor itself being ranked on a scale of 0 – 10 , to provide individual weightage )
Such an “ Apple to Apple “ comparison by a “ third party “ having no vested interest , would go a long way in helping buyers make a considered decision
