A German company is touting their very own tablet which, based on paper, is way faster than Apple’s upcoming iPad. They call it the WePad and it’s powered by an Atom N450 and Android OS.
Of course, they’ll highlight some stuff that are absent in the iPad, i.e. Flash support and Adobe AIR.
Wrote down a side by side comparison on the German-born WePad and the Apple iPod. What was lacking then was the release price and now we got the confirmation and the complete specs.
In an official announcement today, the WePad will come in two flavors and will be priced competitively against the iPod.

11.6″ display screen @ 1366×768 pixels

The Li-Ion battery can go up to 6 hours and the device supports Flash and Adobe Air. The retail price is $611 (Php 28, 106.00 ) for the basic model. If you upgrade to 32GB with 3G and GPS, the rpcie goes up to $774 (Php 35, 604.00).
