OK,this is product made with low wages and government subsidies. India is one the few remaining countries in the world, whose economic and social model fits this kind of "breakthrough". Well, there's always Sub-Sarahan Africa, I suppose.Hey -- this guy doesn't look much different than most Tech geeks who are mature enough to do hugh projects with huge impact and succeed at them. Lay off the stupidity and admire his resolve to make the seemingly impossible reality.
I wouldn't hold your breath on that.$50 tablet today , $100 PC tomorrow $120 laptop .. whats not to like? except the loss of jobs.
I for one welcome our INdian IT overlords.

if this $35 tablet was to go at maybe $200 we wouldnt get this pessimistic comments. There's nothing u can do to please people
Dude, if Italian marble speaks to you.....never mind, just something to think about....The screens are old recycled screens. That's just the way they are. Each one is unique and has a story to tell. Just like Italian marble.

Honestly, they try to make a tablet with a seemingly impossible target, actually pull it off, and the comments here are either irrelevant or pessimistic. Where are the gasps of astonishment that this project deserves? Even if it ends up costing more than the goal, it's FORTY-NINE DOLLARS!
Yes, $49.95 is cheaper that $499.95, (iPad2 start price), thanks for pointing that out for us.thank you for posting the one optimistic comment afte reading through a load of negative ones i do agree with you ihaveaname i think respect is due and as for the price-tag at least it's more affordable compared to other tablets
