TechCrunch’s Crunchpad coming in November – with built in 3g
TechCrunch's Crunchpad show in 'near final' design
We reported earlier this month on Michael Arrington’s (of TechCrunch.com) project called the Crunchpad. Now, we have some more details gleaned by the The Straits Times. iThey state that it’s a priority to get the device out to the masses by November of this year, in time for Christmas shopping. The Singapore newspaper also got a sneak preview of the device and learns of some new specs for the Crunchpad tablet.
We already new that it would be powered by an Intel Atom processor, probably an N270 or N280 and 1gb of ram. Now we learn that it will weigh in at 2.64 pounds and have built in Wifi as well as 3g connectivity.
The price is estimated around $400 in the US (no word on UK price or availability yet), which is more than the $300 he pegged in April, but the built in 3g might make up for it.
