zenPad from Enso-now on order.

Ok, I think my gadget addiction is getting out of control now. I’ve gone and ordered a 5″ Android based tablet to play with now. I figure this could be my commuting device rather than the iPad, the iPad will fit into my life as a sofa surfing experience more than anything else. I think it maybe a little too large to use on a train hence I thought I’d take a look at the Enso-Now zenPad.

The zenPad comes in at a very competitive price starting from $155 to $180 (GPS version), you can also add a 3G Micro USB dongle for $35 if you wish. Worldwide shipping is a flat $25.

Currently ships with Android 1.6 but a version of 2.x will be available within 1 month if the website is to be believed. It comes with an 8GB SD card and runs with a Samsung 6410, 533/667MHz processor which should keep the battery consumption down. Full access to the Android Market is available also. WiFi up to n speed and up to 6hours battery life.

Overall it looks like a cheap little device that could be useful to me. If not… Im sure either the kids would love with a few children’s apps on it or eBay!

I’ll drop a full review once it arrives.
