New ViewSonic tablet spotted at Zinio CES booth
ViewSonic may not have been showing off all of its tablets at its booth at CES, as CarryPad reported spotting a new one at the Zinio booth. The tablet was being used to show off Zinio's new text reflowing feature that makes it easier to use. The seven-inch, Android-powered tablet had very few details and only a few photos.
From the home screen, however, there was a phone dialer built in. It was unclear whether this was just a carried over smartphone OS that's not yet optimized for tablet use.
More and official details on the device are expected to come at the Mobile World Congress show in February. ViewSonic already has the ViewPad 7 in its lineup but has usually skewed towards the 10-inch size in tablets.
