At the media launch of Jump this morning, I noticed the PLDT TelPad being displayed in one of the stands looked very different from the one we saw months ago during its public launch.

I thought the tablet looked familiar — turns out we first saw this one in Singapore last June, the Huawei Ideos S7 Slim (this is the old one).

The Huawei Ideos S7 Slim is a much better Android tablet than the un-branded one we saw before.
PLDT reps say this new set-up will become available to home users by end of August.

The PLDT TelPad was launched back in December 2010 and was dubbed as the first landline-and-tablet device in the country. It had a monthly plan of Php1,849 which comes with a 1Mbps DSL connection, a landline number and the tablet.
