The Dell Venue 8 will appeal to users on a budget

Back in October, we reported that the Dell Venue 8 tablet appeared to be available for ordering off the official Dell website.

But back then the Dell adobe showed an estimated shipping date for the slate set for December 6. Even so, for those who are eager to get their hands on the device and don’t want to wait all the way until December, we have good news.

Apparently, you can get the Venue 8 off Amazon.com sooner. The sites says that the “item will be released on November 22.”

Interestingly enough, Dailytech points out that Newegg.com has been selling the Android device throughout November, since the first Venue 8 consumer review showed up online on November 1. The slate appears to be eligible for shipment at the moment.

The low budget slate features an 8-inch screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Dell has slipped a 2GHz Intel Atom Z2580 processor under the hood, coupled with Intel HD graphics plus 16GB of storage. The Venue 8 is supposed to offer up to 7.5 hours of battery life and will set you back with just $180 / €132.
