Dutch Ambiance Technology has come up with a 10" tablet, running Windows 7 Home Premium, that has a SIM card slot and netbook specs. The AT-Pad tablet is run by an Intel Atom chipset with 1GB of RAM, has a 160GB hard disk inside, USB ports, card readers, LAN port, and a mini VGA connector for hooking it up to an LCD monitor. There is also a front-facing cam and microphone for video calls.
The company has even received a pat on the back from Microsoft for being one of the first to come to market with a Windows-based tablet device, in response to the iPad and Android tablet onslaught. The specs are, of course, netbook-level, save for the capacitive touchscreen, and we don't know yet how long will the 3300mAh battery last on a charge, but the simple fact that you can run the familiar Windows programs on it warms our hearts. The AT-Pad will be available from retailers in November for an yet undisclosed price.
Mint Mobile is celebrating its 10-year anniversary with a special offer on its six-month subscription plans. For a limited time, you can get your preferred tier (6GB, 17GB, 23GB or unlimited) for just $10/mo. That saves you between 50% and 71% on the carrier's mobile plans, making it way easier to recommend.
