BEIJING, Sept. 2 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- The Android Tablet (http://www.lightinthebox.com/_p124253.html ) has been a consistent top seller for global online retailer LightInTheBox.com over the past two months.

Priced at under US$140, LightInTheBox.com's Android Tablet runs on Google's Android 1.6 operating system (OS), an open source platform that encourages users to expand on the tablet's many uses. Unlike the iPad, the Android Tablet is not limited to applications and games approved by the Apple Corporation. Users are able to design their own programs or access the Android Market (http://www.android.com/market/ ) to download from over 30,000 free and paid applications and games.

Other technical strengths of the Android Tablet include its ability to use Adobe products that have not been made available on the iPad, such as Flash, and its expandable memory feature via the TF Card slot.

The Tablet's Lithium-Ion battery allows for 2 and a half hours of simultaneous web, video and music usage. It is Wifi enabled and features a 7" 800x400 resolution TFT touchscreen. The Tablet is powered by a 667MHZ Samsung S3C6410 processor and weighs 332 grams.

LightInTheBox.com has discovered that many consumers are still unsure about how a tablet style PC can play an integral part in their lives. Consumers wanting to experience the tablet PC phenomenon and who are trialing the integration of the technology into their lives have also formed a strong customer base for the online retailer's Android Tablet. Available for less than half the price of the most basic iPad, the Tablet allows such consumers to trial the technology without having to make such a large financial investment.

"We were initially surprised by the success of the Android Tablet because we believed that most consumers in the market for a touchscreen tablet computer would rush out to buy Apple's much hyped iPad," says Alan Guo, CEO of LightInTheBox.com.

In addition to offering a wide range of tablet PC's similar to the Android Tablet, LightInTheBox.com also supplies other electronics targeted at consumers looking for alternatives to high exposure, but more expensive brands. These include portable computers (http://www.lightinthebox.com/wholesale-Computers_c213 ), cell phones (http://www.lightinthebox.com/wholesale-Cell-Phones_c206 ) and electronics (http://www.lightinthebox.com/wholesale-Electronics_c2619 ).
