    It runs Android! It has a screen! It’s cheap! What’s not to love. Apparently plenty, because good old Doug (remember him?) just looked at the Pandigital Novel, the latest member in the craplet family coming out of Asia these days.

    Here’s the money shot:

    It’s definitely an interesting device, although it’s been a bit clunky overall during my initial testing. I’ll have a full review up after I’ve had some more time to play with it. Just to be clear, it’s no iPad killer—not even close.

    Seriously: wait for the big boys to catch up or get a Dell Streak. You’ll be happier, fitter, and more productive.
