Will need a low price tag if it hopes to impress anyone

There will be many tablets up for demonstration at this year's CES, some of which are not all that well known, like Aigo's M803.

Like in 2012, this year's Consumer Electronics Show will feature many tablets, from both famous and not so famous companies.

Aigo falls into the latter category, though it probably wants to change that as soon as possible.

Whether or not its M803 tablet will help in that regard is unclear.

It would have been possible to form a better idea of Aigo's chances to make an impact at CES if the price of its tablet had been provided..

As it is, though, the tag was not revealed, meaning that it is impossible to tell if the device will be in any way competitive.

An unspecified ARM Cortex A9 processor lies at the heart of the aigopad M803.

The amount of RAM is not specified, but the product page does list 8 GB of built-in Flash storage space.

Other features include WiFi support, a 0.3-megapixel webcam, speakers, a g-sensor and, of course, a screen.

The display measures 8 inches diagonally and is a TFT LCD with a native resolution of 1,280 x 768 pixels.

Needless to say, multitouch support is present and accounted for as well.

Finally, there is a row of multitouch menu buttons on the side of the electronic device, which suggests this may have been something initially designed for earlier versions of the Android operating system.

All in all, the newcomer will need a very competitive price point and will require its 6,000 mAh battery to be able to last for a considerable number of hours.

After all, if it doesn't, it won't really be any match for all the Tegra 3-based and other tablets that CES 2012 will host.

The ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime will make short work of it if push comes to shove.
