disgo Tablet 6000 is another cheap Android 2.1 slate

It’s obviously the week for cheap Android tablets, with Next’s �180 slate being followed closely by the disgo Tablet 6000. �Based around a 7-inch WVGA touchscreen and Android 2.1, the Tablet 6000 packs WiFi b/g/n, a miniHDMI port, two miniUSB ports and 2GB of storage in the box.


There’s also 256MB of RAM, a microSD card slot and a 2.5mm headphones socket, and an pair of 0.5W speakers. �No word on what processor is inside, though disgo say there’s a separate 2D/3D graphics accelerator, and nor is there any indication of runtimes from the 1,500mAh battery.
Unfortunately, as you might have guessed there’s also no Android Market access, with disgo preloading the SlideMe Market instead; they’ve also put a YouTube viewer, Skyfire browser and the wowBook eReader app on there. �The whole thing measures 14.6mm thick and will be priced at �179.99 ($285) when it launches sometime this month.
