[OLPC-Philippines] Tablets

[Carlos Nazareno]

If you're not very particular about the tablets Ron, there are a
number of low-cost Android ones assembled by local EMS/OEMs such as
Cherry Mobile and MyPhone, as well as those from china that cost about
$50 I think. Not sure about the specs, but they'll be at least 1GHz on
Android 4, with expandable MicroSD slots.

Some of them might be pressure-based and not capacitive, but quite a
bit of e-learning content, e-books, videos, etc can be loaded on them
since they're Android.
