Lakshmi Access Communications Systems of India has launched their $99 Android tablet this week, which it hopes to gain success within a market where iPads and Xooms are just too expensive.
Industry experts in the nation have long believed that tablets would outsell laptops and desktops, although Internet penetration still remains low.
Dubbed the "Magnum Pepper Tablet PC," the device will only have a 4.3-inch display.
"We have made it affordable, we have ensured it fits the pocket," says managing director Mahendraa Kumar.
The tablet will have 3G and Wi-Fi, run on a 800MHz processor, 4GB storage and include 256MB RAM.
Lakshmi will expand to more expensive (and larger) tablets in the future, adds Kumar.
The tablet will be the cheapest in India, under Beetel Teletech's brand new $220 tablet, Apple's $500 iPad 2, and Samsung's $800 Galaxy 10.1.
