It’s raining tablets as far as the indian market goes, first we saw the release of high end Samsung Galaxy Tab’s new generation range then we saw the Reliance Branded tablet for 12,999 INR and then just 2 weeks after that Beetel Tablet launch for 9,999 INR.

Now Mercury a well known brand for it’s hardware peripherals like motherboards and other stuff has entered the tablet business with the launch of mTab,first 3 core Android based tablet  at the price tag  of 9,499 INR

This one is by far the best bang for buck configuration i have ever seen for a tablet at that price tag,this would certainly  kick some ass off other competitors to bring down their prices.Good this about this one is this is not a Carrier Locked device like the Reliance Tab which is a locked device(if unlocked the warranty is void).

The device is expected to hit the stores in September. Watch this space for more on this.
