Interesting move here by Amazon. By dropping the nicely-specced Vizio VTab eight inch tablet to $199, they’ve created a competitor to their own Amazon Kindle Fire tablet which at 7 inches is also priced at $199.
The VTab runs Android 2.3, has 4GB of built in storage and an SD card slot for additional storage and 512MB of RAM. It bests the Kindle Fire with a bigger, higher resolution 1024 x 768 display, front facing camera for video conferencing (with Google Talk and Skype), built in IR blaster, an SRS 3 speaker sound system as well as an internal GPS.
It lacks the Kindle’s Dual Core processor.
For my money, this beats a Kindle Fire.
