According to Asa Dotzler, Mozilla has begun testing its Firefox OS on a tablet prototype.
The tablet, as expected, has mid-range specs featuring a 10-inch 1280x800 display, 2GB RAM, 16GB internal storage and a 1GHz quad-core processor.

Aimed at emerging markets, the Firefox OS tablet will likely never see the light of day in the U.S, just like Mozilla's current low-end smartphone offerings.

Processor: A31 (ARM Cortex A7) Quad-Core 1.0GHz w/ PowerVR SGX544MP2 GPU
