Time to gas up the Mystery Van, grab all the Scooby snacks that you can and do whatever it is Shaggy does to get ready to solve the case of "The Mysterious Korean Android Tablet"; of course, it will turn out not to be a tablet after all but Old Man Johnson wearing a mask.,..

It's only a matter of time before North Koreans find a way to communicate to the outside world using those Android devices.

The fact that this was deemed post worthy is truly sad! The fact that I took time to comment on it, even sadder!

What's more interesting than this arctlce is the "superdollar"
North Korea is the worlds biggest counterfeiter of the US dollar. They actually have the same kind of printing press and use the same ink as the federal reserve. So they are buying these fake android tablets with a fake US dollar =D

This is not Android but iOS I guess, the tablet can't do multitasking, it can only show the picture of "dear leader" all the time. LOL

People in North Korea don't care about internet, they care only about food.

Whats the point if you have no internet access to get content for it?

Everyone in North Korea who knows the internet exists and is allowed to access it and use electronic devices is in this picture.

N.koreans aren't allowed to use internet..There is a heavy censorship..
Most of these Koreans don't even know what is INTERNET..
It's a very isolated country..
Google about it man..!

They are not allowed to use the internet as the rest of us know it. They do have a special disconnected version of "the internet" in which the North Korean government controls all of the content, they do not see the rest of the world as it is, only as they want it portrayed...

This is a gadget for the elite that live in Pyongyang. The average person could never afford a device like this.
It would probably be a stretch for even most in Pyongyang to buy it.
