Android (http://developer.android.com/index.

html)
Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware, and key applications. Android is an open-source software stack for mobile devices, and a corresponding open-source project led by Google. We created Android in response to our own experiences launching mobile apps. We wanted to make sure that there was no central point of failure, so that no industry player can restrict or control the innovations of any other. That's why we created Android, and made its source code open. The Android SDK provides the tools and APIs necessary to begin developing applications on the Android platform using the Java programming language. No. of cell manufacturing company develop the android mobile devices. Like Acer HTC LG Motorola

Samsung Sony Ericsson.

AAKASH TABLET (http://www.akashtablet.com)

Not in my wildest dream I could have imagined this. Six months ago, the expectation for the tablet market was 2.5 lakh units a year. While talking to distributors, we would say we want to produce one lakh units in India, and they told us that if we were to sell 2,000 units a month, we should be happy. Now, we are looking at producing over four lakh units a month.

Aakash Tablet vs. UbiSlate 7 Table Comparison & Specs

Its clear that the Aakash tablet is the dumped version of Ubislate but there is a lot of difference between Aakash tablet and the UbiSlate 7 tablet. To make things clear, Ubislate 7 is the upgraded version of Aakash and its named as Aakash 2. Here in this article we will compare the Ubislate 7 with Aakash tablet.

Table of Content

Processor Comparison Display Comparison Camera Comparison Operating System and User Interface Comparison Connectivity Comparison Network Comparison Memory Comparison Battery Comparison User Interface Comparison

Processor
Aakash ARM 11 processor clocked at 366 Mhz Ubislate 7 Cortex A8 processor clocked at 700 Mhz Aakash tablet has ARM 11 processor clocked at 366 Mhz. The processor speed is very less and even starting Android phone has a minimum of 550 Mhz processor. With that it causes freezing and overheating problem even within one hour of usage. The upgraded version of Aakash i.e., the Ubislate 7 comes with new Cortex A8 processor clocked at 800 Mhz processor. The processor specifications of Ubislate 7 are not that good buts its fair enough to run the device with no issues (Galaxy Ace has nearly same processor speed). Winner: Ubislate 7

Operating System

Aakash Android 2.2 Froyo OS Ubislate 7 Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS Both Aakash and Ubislate 7 tablets are powered with the Googles Android operating system, still there is much difference in the version incorporated in both the devices. Though the Android OS version doesnt make much difference but it makes clear cut in Aakash as its with low processor and RAM so that it cant be upgraded to higher version of Android. The Aakash tablet is with Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system, the highest for smartphones in Android. The Aakash tablet goes with Getjar application download and the Android Market willnot work here whereas Ubislate has full access to Android Market and download applications too.
Display Screen

Aakash 7 inches display screen Ubislate 7 7 inches display screen There is no difference between Aakash and Ubislate 7 and both of them have 7 inches touchscreen display with 800 x 480 pixels display screen resolution. Both the tablet have resistive touchscreen display. Camera Aakash No Camera Ubislate 7 Front Facing VGA Camera Nothing much in camera department too for Aakash. Aakash slips her too with no camera and the Ubislate 7 has basic VGA front facing camera which is useful to have when you want to go with video chat and video calls. Winner : Ubislate 7 Battery Aakash 2100 mAh battery Ubislate 7 3200 mAh battery

The Aakash tablet comes with 2100 mAh battery and Ubislate 7 comes with 3200 mAh battery. There is serious improvement the successor model of Aakash which provides 3 hours of battery backup. The Aakash tablet with less in processor specifications overheats too much and this causes the battery to drain out quickly. Observed that the Aakash tablet lasts for a maximum of one hours during video playback, which is very very bad battery backup time. Winner: Ubislate 7 Memory There is huge difference in the RAM of both the tablets. The earlier version of Aakash has 256 MB of RAM whereas the upgraded Aakash 2 i.e., the Ubislate 7 has 256 MB of RAM. The Ubislate comes with 2 GB of internal flash memory and a micro SD card slot supporting memory card with 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB and 32 GB of storage. Aakash tablet also has the 2 GB of internal memory and upgradeable to 32 GB in size. This storage is for documents, photos, music and video storage. Network & Speed The Aakash tablet has the option of Wi-Fi internet access and so the internet speed completely depends on the Wi-Fi signal strength and your internet plans. Provided that Aakash tablets strucks and overheat, I feel like its would be not the right device to obtain good results even though you have Wi-Fi. Coming to Aakash, the GPRS and the Wi-Fi both are available and users would be happy accept both. If they have available Wi-Fi then they would make use of it or else the GPRS on their tablet will do it for them, although it would be littler slower in accessing. Connectivity The Aakash tablet comes with the option of Wi-Fi connectivity to browse internet and it does have a SIM card slot too. Coming to UbiSlate 7, it comes with Wi-Fi and GPRS internet browsing. This is definitely an add-on and users wouldnt mind paying little higher amount to go with both the options. Moreover users would be able to make voice calls and video calls using Ubislate 7 tablet.

User Interface Practically observing its just the difference in the Android version which makes the user interface changed. Android 2.3 Gingerbread being the latest development of Android 2.2 Froyo, its with good user interface and various other options included. Price The Aakash tablet is priced at Rs 2500 in India for the general customers and for 50 % rebate for Indian students. Coming the to the price of Ubislate 7, its priced at Rs 2999. Verdict Finally the Aakash tablet is manufactured in India through Datawind and Ubislate 7 is just imported from Taiwan. Finally at a price of Rs 2500 and Ubislate 7 at a price of Rs 2999 has not much difference and I would suggest the users to go with Ubislate 7. There are no options for students as the rebate option is not available for Ubislate 7 tablet.

WEBKIT
A layout engine (web browser engine sometimes called layout engine or rendering engine) is a software component that takes marked up content (such as HTML, XML, image files, etc. and formatting information (such as CSS, XSL, etc.) and displays the formatted content on the screen)designed to allow web browsers to render web pages written in C++. Example Trident, the web browser engine from Internet Explorer, is used by many applications on the Microsoft Windows platform, such as net Smart, Outlook Express, some versions of Microsoft Outlook, and the mini-browsers in Winamp and RealPlayer.

Git is an open-source version-control system designed to handle very large

projects that are distributed over multiple repositories. In the context of Android, we use Git for local operations such as local branching, commits, diffs, and edits. One of the challenges in setting up the Android project was figuring out how to best support the outside community--from the hobbiest community to large OEMs building mass-market consumer devices. We wanted components to be replaceable, and we wanted interesting components to be able to grow a life of their own outside of Android. We first chose a distributed revision control system, then further narrowed it down to Git.

Repo is a repository management tool that we built on top of Git. Repo unifies
the many Git repositories when necessary, does the uploads to our revision control system, and automates parts of the Android development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git in the context of Android. The repo command is an executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path. In working with the Android source files, you will use Repo for across-network operations. For example, with a single Repo command you can download files from multiple repositories into your local working directory.

Gerrit is a web-based code review system for projects that use git. Gerrit
encourages more centralized use of Git by allowing all authorized users to submit changes, which are automatically merged if they pass code review. In addition, Gerrit makes reviewing easier by displaying changes side by side in-browser and enabling inline comments.

Flash memory is a non-volatile computer storage chip that can be electrically

erased and reprogrammed. It was developed from EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable read-only memory) and must be erased in fairly large blocks before these can be rewritten with new data. Examples of personal computers, PDAs, digital audio players, digital cameras, mobile phones, synthesizers, video games, scientific instrumentation, industrial robotics, medical electronic.

MagicGate is a copy-protection technology introduced by Sony in 1999 as part of the Secure Digital Music Initiative (SDMI). It works by encrypting the content on the device and using MagicGate chips in both the storage device and the reader to enforce control over how files are copied.

Router policy
Using a router can actually create interference with your internet connection and the connections of those around you. Because many of the connection issues we deal with every day tend to be related to what we call "rogue routers", our perspective is that it's in everybody's best interest not to allow personal routers on the network and we've made that our policy. Instead, please connect your computer directly to the wall jack in your room using an Ethernet cable or (if your school offers wifi), connect using your wireless access card. (For more on wifi-related issues, see here.) If you are currently using a router, wireless router, wireless access point, or any similar device, please disconnect it from the network. When these are found, the user will be held responsible for any network issues caused by the them and repeated offenders will end up having their service terminated. We don't want to take such a hard line, but it is a big deal and it can cause a lot of problems. For that reason, we ask that you please understand the impact of interfering with the network connections in your residence and take the risk of using a router seriously. Routing schemes differ in their delivery semantics:

unicast delivers a message to a single specific node; broadcast delivers a message to all nodes in the network; multicast delivers a message to a group of nodes that have expressed interest in receiving the message; anycast delivers a message to any one out of a group of nodes, typically the one nearest to the source. geocast de
