BeBook Live 7-inch Android tablet coming June 21 in UK



We have already talked quite a bit about the BeBook Live tablet that runs Android. We mentioned earlier this month that the launch date was tipped for this summer. What we didn’t have then was the actual launch date to mark in our calendars. That official launch date has now been revealed by BeBook as June 21. That date comes from an email BeBook sent out in the UK.



That email also had the RRP for the BeBook Live at £229. The price in the States has been pegged at $280. That will make it a very reasonably priced Android device that may prove to be quite popular. The device has Android 2.2 onboard. The machine has a 1GHz Samsung Cortex processor under the hood as well. In all the hardware is very nice considering the price the tablet will sell for. The tablet has a 7-inch multitouch screen, and the resolution is 800×600.
Other hardware specs include 512MB of SDRAM, 4GB of internal flash storage and a microSD card slot. As is typical, that microSD card slot will support up to 32GB cards. The front camera on the device will allow for video conferencing and chat, and it has HDMI output. The BeBook Live should prove to be just as hackable as the Nook Color and I think it will end up being popular with people looking for an entry-level tablet with decent hardware.
