Apple sure got it wrong not putting a camera on the iPad. Dell got it right, they put two! About twice the size of an iPhone I can totally see this as a great platform for AR apps. It runs Android too. Great job Dell!

Via one of my favorite Blogs<\/a> (Games Alfresco):
“While the Apple iPad Tablet\u00c2 announcement\u00c2 last month was disappointing for augmented reality developers and\u00c2 enthusiasts, the details about the upcoming Dell Tablet will make you salivate.<\/em>
The Mini 5 will have a five inch touchscreen with both front and user facing cameras allowing full augmented reality capabilities. \u00c2 WiFi and 3G connectivity allow enough bandwidth and the 1.0 GHz Snapdragon Qualcomm processor will give the Mini 5 the juice it needs to power resource-expensive AR apps. \u00c2 It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll run the latest version of the Android OS which gives it AR\u00c2 credentials\u00c2 right away since there are many apps already made for that system.<\/em>
The price plan will affect the market that it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s trying to fill, though Dell says they will price it \u00e2\u20ac\u0153competitively\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. \u00c2 But I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think I could have asked for better features from a tablet for augmented reality. \u00c2 The weight of the device might impact AR since holding it up will be harder than a smartphone and since it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a touchscreen, will you want to hold it with one hand and navigate with the other? \u00c2 I hope some AR developers can incorporate voice commands into their games and products.<\/em>
And while the screen might be too small in this version, they have eluded to a suite of tablet products so maybe a larger iPad sized version might come out in the future. \u00c2 Personally, I already have a free smartphone from work, so a tablet that does different things on a bigger screen would be appealing to me.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
