China Telecom to launch Mastone lifePad and ask for 4980 Yuan ($732)

China Telecom subscribers may get the feeling that their carrier is going to rob their money directly off their pockets when they read this news, which says China telecom teaming up with Mastone in Beijing announced that it will bring the Mastone lifePad to its subscribers in late June, and that the price could be as hight as 4980 Yuan. Sounds extremely crazy. All these stuffs, a 1GHZ ARM Cortex A8 based Freescale i.MX51 processor, a 7 inches 800×600 resistive display, 512 DDR2, 1GB flash storage, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, built-in GPS, EVDO 3G module, Android 2.1 OS, and a 5000mAh battery, just don’t get enough persuasion. Our suggestion is: go and give Shanzhai iPad a chance. What’s yours?
