Channel trader joins tablet computer production melee

In the face of Apple's new ipad-opened electronics market, even Gome's home appliance stores are starting to "follow suit".　　Yesterday, the Shenzhen tablet computer design company told reporters that Gome is through its partners in Shenzhen, the first batch of customized tablet computer 45,000 units. Will not be "Gome" brand appeared in the design of the order show, Gome custom machine is divided into three kinds, respectively, 7 inches, 10.2 inches and 10.2-inch flip-rotatable tablet computer, all using Google operating system. It is reported that each product starting order volume is 15,000, the total of 45,000.　　The employer specifically noted: "This computer is with Gome to launch the product, so manufacturers must provide 3C certification." Yesterday, reporters on this issue to the gome side of the verification, but did not get a clear response. However, people close to Gome say Gome does have the will to expand its business in tablet computers. "But what kind of custom tablet, especially style, is still under discussion, but it's certainly not going to be in Gome's own brand."　　"Previously, Lenovo and Hewlett-Packard had produced custom machines for gome in computer. Custom performance to focus on the ipad "soft rib" and Apple ipad without card reader, no USB interface, no camera, can't change batteries, can not expand storage space, with a lot of unforgivable "error" compared to the exposure of the Gome customized tablet is fully functional. According to the orders received by the press, Gome customized tablet computer designated by the Granville 8505+ Special main chip, which means that the Gome tablet computer must have GPS capabilities. Other metrics show that the custom machine will have a 300,000 megapixel camera, a maximum of 16GB micro SD slots, a two USB interface, and an additional RJ45 network port with WiFi support.　　This means that Gome's customized tablet can be wired to operate, probably because China's current lack of WiFi is particularly prevalent. A senior design engineer, after looking at an order, calculates that the cost of a 7-inch custom tablet is about 75 dollars, and that "by adding 1 inches per screen, the usual rule of increasing the cost of 15 dollars is rough, and the cost of 10.2-inch notebooks is about 900 yuan."　　Although it is not possible to judge Gome's final selling price, it is certain that it will have an absolute price advantage over a five thousand or six thousand-dollar ipad. All sides want to take a vote on the ipad. In fact, since the ipad listing, the major computer manufacturers, including some shanzhai manufacturers are looking at the tablet market, to a piece, the home appliance store also joined the regiment is not surprising. According to people familiar with the situation, more than 20 companies in Shenzhen on the scale of the programme design company hands related tablet computer orders about 10 million or more.　　The future of this market will be very fierce and chaotic competition. So who can quickly launch a similar product as Apple's ipad boom continues,It is possible for anyone to "get a vote" from it. "If we wait until the market matures, then the profits that manufacturers can make will be ' MP3 '," he said. "It analyst Qin Chuan said to the reporter.　　The implication is that it may be hard to make a lot of money. In the case of Gome's customized tablet, a professional in the Shenzhen electronics industry said that, according to the normal procedure, if not an accident, the product can be produced within two months of the fastest. "Coupled with Gome's strong store channels, it should be able to catch up with the sales boom in tablets."　　The expert said. In addition, in the Shenzhen Scheme Design circle circulated, the domestic another big home appliance store giant for tablet computer also began to order customization.　　But the news was not confirmed by the company at the time of press deadline.
