Apad Tablet Differences

Just wanted to clear up a few questions – Apads come in three different batches, and we have been shipping from Batch 3, due to the low availability of previous batches.

Batch 1:
No camera, Hynix flash memory

Batch 2:
With camera, Samsung flash memory
Also known as the red LED Apad

Batch 3:
Same as batch 2, but with blue charging LED (typically), relocated USB hosting port, 9v charger, improved performance

Specs after the break, from Hiapad.

    Can you verify that you are shipping batch 3 blue LED plastic shell variants with 9v charger and factory firmware of 0612?
