The 7-inch capacitive touch screen Tab with Android 2.3 OS
(operating system) from Reliance Communications comes with a 512 MB RAM and
micro SD external storage. Weighing 397 gram, it has a 2 MP rear camera and a

The company, which launched 3G Tab last year, is offering a free 4
GB SD card with the CDMA version. The device supports up to 32 GB storage.
The CDMA Tab was, on Monday, launched in Chennai, Bangalore,
Hyderabad and Pune.
Addressing presspersons at the launch here, Rakesh Singh, Hub Head
(Wireless Business), Tamil Nadu and Kerala, Reliance Communications, said these
four cities were key growth drivers for Tabs in the country.
Launching in these
four cities would help access the market in the remaining areas of the
respective States, he added.
Earlier, music director Anirudh Ravichander of ‘Kolaveri Di' fame
launched the Tab.
According to Mr. Singh, the aspirations and the need of the people
to access Internet wherever and whenever they want was bound to spur growth of
the Tab market, which now is flooded with as many as 30 brands and 80 models.
The Indian Tab market, he added, was projected to touch 8.3 lakh
pieces in 2015 from 1.6 lakh pieces this year.
With the launch, Reliance becomes the first telecom operator in
the country to offer Tabs on both the 3G and CDMA networks, a release said. It
is also the first CMDA Android Tablet from an Indian telecom company.
The Tab, with push e-mail capability, is bundled with ‘Documents
to Go' that supports Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint and PDF formats.
