India launched what it says is the world’s cheapest touch-screen tablet computer yesterday, priced at just $35. Costing a fraction of Apple’s iPad, the subsidised Aakash is aimed at students. \nIt supports web browsing and video conferencing has a three-hour battery life and two USB ports, but questions remain over how it will perform. \nOfficials hope the computer will give digital access to students in small towns and villages across India, which lags behind its rivals in connectivity. \nAt the launch in the Indian capital, Delhi, Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal handed out 500 Aakash (meaning sky) tablets to students who will trial them. \nHe said the government planned to buy 100,000 of the tablets. It hopes to distribute 10 million of the devices to students over the next few years. \n“The rich have access to the digital world, the poor and ordinary have been excluded. Aakash will end that digital divide,” Mr Sibal said. \nThe Aakash has been developed by UK-based company DataWind and Indian Institute of Technology (Rajasthan).<\/p>\n
