Nothing is game changer, nothing is great here. My experience is different. First, Where is the retail shop of this Akash tablet. It is not available anywhere, you either have to be a student of VERY VERY high profile English medium school (Whose student already have iPad) or you must be tech sevvy to order it online.

If you want to buy it from retail shop, there is no any warranty or guarantee. The retailer told me that its a China type product. Once you go out of the shop, the deal is finished. Other thing, the ONLY tablet is for the price of $40, and you must have to buy a keyboard with it and a leather case both cost around more 40$ meaning total is for 80$. Better way I will go for Micromax,

It's not for people who can afford a laptop/desktop, also know about the existence of Hackernews and know enough English to comment on it.

It's also not supposed to be available in retail market and will be directly provided to Government Universities, Colleges, Schools. I already know about a pilot project in National Capital Region(Delhi) as my cousins have registered for it.

Any keyboard will work with it. An Intex keyboard costs 3$ and Microsoft costs 20$. Leather/Synthetic case will be again for 4-10$.

You are talking rubbish....
