No, it’s not an iPad wannabe, nor is it a new eReader. It’s got no apps or games or books stored on its memory card. This simple tablet device takes the place of pen and paper, that’s all. It has a simple real-paper-look interface that allows you to make notes or sketches for future reference, then save or delete them. With a long life battery (180h) and a $99 price point, it’s awfully tempting to see how well it would work. Unfortunately, you’ll have to wait until June of this year to actually put your hands on one, but it could just be worth it.
See NoteSlate’s website for specifications and details.
Looks like the basic model along with the white and black version will be available June 2011, while the red, green, and blue ones will be available in December 2011. Sign up for NoteSlate’s newsletter to be notified when it is available for sale.
