Yifang M707, Android Tablet with infrared pen input

Posted by Charbax – February 28, 2011

Yifang is a Chinese manufacturer of Android tablets, after having acquired Israelli pen input company pegasus, they now have integrated that technology into the side of one of their Android tablets, when combined with a nice leather case, it makes a very interesting Android powered tool if you can think of being productive scanning your handwritten notes onto Android and use that in real-time somehow. For example, the notes could be broadcast onto a digital whiteboard in real time, notes could be shared online. The price of the whole bundle could be below $199 at retail, as said in the video, the infrared pen input components adds about $40 to the price. This device has the Rockchip RK2818 Android 2.1 for now and will be upgraded to Rockchip Rk2918 Gingerbread/Honeycomb when that one is available within a couple of months.

    Price? Processor? 3G? RAM?

    I was thinking of buying a Japaneses pen that does that, if the tablet is worth it I’t looks like a better option. But I don’t like resistive touch screens … It’s not possible to have multi-touch with a resistive, is it?

    Is this actually available for purchase? I’ve been looking for something like this for a while. In particular, as an addition to an iPad (like mentioned in the video at the end), where you can use a stylus directly on screen as well as write on paper.
