Tablet coming from Nigeria

Tablet coming from Nigeria
It is very nice feeling to see an African entrepreneur has developed a tablet for $350=.
He may not have the money that Mark Shuttleworth of Ubuntu has but his courage to go head on this market should be appreciated not only in Africa but in the Asian continent too.
I wish him all the success. 

I HAVE SOME RESERVATION ABOUT hooking to Goggle´s Android which has departed itself from Linux base but one man cannot achieve both hardware and software independence unless he links up with Ubuntu.
WHICH IS A POSSIBILITY.
Our politicians here  do not know what is a tablet?
They there is a ballot to rig.
They also do not know the potential it has in education.
By simply giving free books they think the educational institutions will prosper, but the higher education minister cannot solve the problems of the university dons.
This is a miracle country by all means.
In Singapore, in 2009 had Barnes Noble giving free digital books to students.
Dou you know the number.
It was over 90,000 books but their politicians do not boast about it. 
When Metro had some problems in last December, they ministers took responsibility.
