"We are proud to announce another world first at Viewsonic. 3G phone functionality combined with dual cameras gives the ability for use of Android apps to use augmented reality or video calling on the move with the benefit of an excellent 7" screen. The ViewPad 7 is aimed at users who require the 'always on' connectivity they are used to from a mobile phone with a more agreeable screen size for longer term use. says Derek Wright, European Product Marketing Manager.

With a full size SIM slot, Bluetooth built in, and WiFI capabilities, you are open to make instant messaging, text/mms messaging, VOIP and standard voice calls with the Viewpad 7, when you are not browsing the web. Well it is an Android, you can do all that together with multitasking capabilities of Android 2.2 (Froyo). WIth it's GPS capabilities it is unlikely that you get lost either.
