The tablet market seems to be growing with each passing day, this once thanks to Packard Bell, whose labs have spawned the Liberty Tab, or at least the latest one.
Packard Bell is not exactly a newcomer to the tablet game, but that only means that it has to make sure its products stay up to date.
This means that it has to periodically upgrade the software and hardware, maybe even replace existing slates with new ones.
As it happens, a reason to do the latter has not appeared, since new ARM platform, like NVIDIA's Kepler, aren't due out for a short while yet.
What the company
did do, though, was move on the software front, advancing its product line to the newest iteration of the Android Honeycomb operating system.
The version on the new Liberty Tab, as Packard Bell's tablet is called, is Android 3.2 (Android 3.0 was the original Honeycomb).
Previously-sold units have also started to get updated to this software, so all customers are accounted for.
As a reminder, the tablet runs the NVIDIA Tegra SoC (dual-core ARM platform at 1 GHz) and has a 10.1-inch display with a native resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels.
Other specifications include 16/32 GB storage, GPS, a rear-facing 5-megapixel camera, a 2-megapixel camera on the front and stereo speakers with Dolby Mobile technology.
Of course, Packard Bell made sure to throw in the obligatory microSD card slot, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1 and HDMI, even offering 3G connectivity for good measure.
European stores should have it for sale now, in Pearl White or Burgundy Red color options. UK stores will ask for £349, while the EU price is €399 (548.02 dollars, according to exchange rates, not that retailers usually reflect them much).
