The long awaited Huawei MediaPad tablet has just been spotted at FCC (Federal Communication Commission) and is expected to be available on the market by the end of the year.

Rumor has it that the tablet will arrive at T-Mobile USA for around $200 (about 145 EUR) with a new two-year agreement or $500 (365 EUR) outright.

The tablet is delivered with a 7-inch IPS capacitive touchscreen display with 1280 x 800 pixels resolution and Google's Android 3.2 Honeycomb operating system.

Huawei MediaPad features full support for T-Mobile's HSPA+ network and packs a 1.2 GHz processor, along with dual cameras.

Although there is no word on when the tablet will be launched, it shouldn't take too long after the MediaPad is approved by FCC.
