the price of tablets should not be the only factor, in order to be fully usable these devices have to be context sensitive - the problem with these sub $200 tablets is POWER.... the screens in the current form are not power efficient!!! they run out of power in 2-4 hours, this is not useful in our context.
something using e-ink or at least pixel qi will be best suited for large scale deployment in our continent.
