Well, here it is. After months of beta tests (http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/13/motorola-to-begin-beta-testing-rugged-android-tablet-steps-up-e/), Motorola's ET1 tablet was finally unveiled today, bringing a taste of Android 2.3 to the enterprise market (http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/28/motorola-subsidiary-3lm-to-offer-enterprise-class-device-managem/). Powered by a 1GHz dual-core CPU, this rugged slate packs 8GB of internal storage, along with a 32GB microSD card slot, and features a seven-inch, Gorilla Glass capacitive touchscreen with 1024 x 600 resolution. Weighing in at 1.4 pounds, the ET1 also boasts an eight megapixel rear camera, a front-facing shooter designed for videoconferencing and 720p video capabilities. Plus, retailers can choose to outfit the tablet with a host of accessories, including a barcode reader, magnetic stripe reader, handstrap and holster. At this point, the ET1 boasts only WiFi connectivity, though Motorola Solutions' Sheldon Safir says a Wide Area Network version is in the works. The manufacturer didn't offer a specific price, but Safir tells Computer World that bulk purchases should cost less than $1,000 by the time the slab hits the market, later this year. Head past the break for a full platter of PR, along with a demo video.
