Huawei MediaPad erscheint als T-Mobile SpringBoard zu Weihnachten

Das Huawei MediaPad ist ein 7 Zoll Tablet mit einer sehr hohen Auflösung (1280×800 Pixel) und einem 1,2GHz DualCore Prozessor, das auf der IFA erstmals richtig gezeigt wurde. In den USA hat T-Mobile nun angekündigt, dass sie das MediaPad unter dem Namen T-Mobile SpringBoard zu Weihnachten anbieten wollen. Ob die Telekom das Tablet auch in Deutschland rausbringen wird, ist unbekannt. Man kann das Huawei MediaPad aber schon bei Amazon vorbestellen. Hier in Deutschland soll das MediaPad für 399 Euro am 1. November erscheinen, dieses Datum stand Anfangs auch bei Amazon, ist mittlerweile aber von der Produktseite verschwunden. Mit dem Preis ist das Tablet eine direkte Konkurrenz zum ebenfalls 7 Zoll großen Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, das für 399 Euro soweit wir wissen aber kein UMTS/HSDPA Modul haben wird. Das Huawei MediaPad hatte mir auf der IFA sehr gefallen und wird vermutlich mein HTC Flyer als ständigen Begleiter ablösen, es wird also auf jeden Fall einen Test dazu geben.
