Pocketables points out that the Huawei MediaPad, which Chippy plans on purchasing, has made its way through the FCC, likely on it’s way to a US release.
After skimming the relevant FCC documents, it appears as though this is a WiFi-only version of the MediaPad, though Pocketables thinks we may see a carrier-tied version of the Huawei MediaPad at some point.
The Huawei MediaPad has already been made available for sale in a number of other countries and is one of only a few 7″ Honeycomb tablets yet available or announced. Others include Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 7.7 (and Galaxy Tab 7 Plus), the Toshiba Thrive 7, Acer’s Iconia Tab A100, and a few lesser known tablets.
Steve, just saw that article and wanted to “inform” you :-) sounds good. i’ve seen some expected delivery dates here in Switzerland, though nothing before end of October. hoping this will remain like that
oops..sorry, Ben of course :-)
I’ve seen Conrad advertising a date in to weeks that slips by one day every day! Others talking about second week of Oct.
same here in Switzerland. just asked one online shop about their delivery, as they are advertizing 3-7 days. not sure they can hold it, but who knows. but even if end of october or beginning of november, it’s no a problem, right now waiting for the announcement of the Nexus prime :-)
