New Tablet by T-Mobile: SpringBoard Tablet

I guess everyone has tablet fever. T-Mobile is trying to get a piece of the action by compete with the big hitters like iPad, but in a new ballpark of keeping the price low, below $200. T-Mobile has created the Springboard Tablet made to compete with Amazon's Kindle Fire Tablet to try and grab the everyday person to get addicted to the tablet trend.
The Springboard has a 7in sharp screen with a 1.2GHz dual core processor running Android's Honeycomb OS. It includes a back and front camera which the Amazon Fire doesn't have. It also has an HDMI, micro-USB and microSD slot in order to expand your storage an extra 32GB if need be. The HDMI port is new to tablets so you could potentially hook this bad boy up to a monitor and key board and mouse and bam its a computer.
It will be hitting the shelves during the holiday session so be sure to look for it in all the flyers and all online. But of course, make sure you tell them that you heard it here first.
