Where is the value-add in a lowly spec'd gadget which costs upwards N45,000?

Sorry to have to rain down on Encipher's parade, but I would have preferred to see a fit-for-purpose gadget like the $35 Aakash tablet launched by India with so much fanfare yesterday than an expensive and yet lowly spec'd gizmo which would only appeal to our faddish youth culture.



Wikipedia entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encipher_Inye
Encipher Inye The Encipher Inye is a tablet PC developed by The Encipher Group. It was announced on 8 May 2010 and released in Nigeria that same year. It is powered by an Telechips Tcc8902 ARM 11 800Mhz processor and runs on Android version 2.1 aka Eclair.

"The name "Inye" means 'The One' in Igala, a language in Nigeria."

The Inye tablet’s price point is certainly more comfortable for those who find the Samsung Galaxy Tab a bit pricey. There are two versions:
16GB HD, 512MB RAM, 1.3MP Camera, other specs remain the same – N60,000
4GB HD, 256MB RAM, No Camera, other specs remain the same – N45,000

What happened to the tablet? Is it even being usedin Nigeria

@Post

If it WORKs and if its inexpensive then thumbs up. Nigerians need to take their citizens into consideration, not everyone is rich or middle class.

CNN just premiered the tablet now now & believe me I was very very impressed. I pray God Blesses this guys market & hustle...it would really make me proud & I believe it would make the whole of Nigeria proud. The cnn reporters were really impressed & happy (believe me) but they said they were really disappointed that Nigerians weren't excited about their own stuff.....I saw the tablet & it was cooooooooooooooooooollllllll & the price's fair. I love the name too,Saheed said "inye" means "first" in one of our languages. God Bless Nigeria & God Bless inye & that Saheed guy. Amen.

check out the video here on CNN's Business News

aba tablet pc ?

I'd rather buy P3 desktop than that ish for now

Nice one!

Guys like dayo are busy researching on puccies and tits on and beyond nld.lol

This Tablet is an android tablet, branded "Inye" as requested by The encipher "Group". Anybody can request that manufacturers in China brand a tablet in his or her name and there are many of them in the market. Micro-manna (a Kaduna based company) for instance has tablets branded in her name so also is "Wires and waves" (Somewhere off Toyin street in Ikeja). ComputerPort.biz At City Mall (Lagos Island) has several branded gadgets.
So, its not in any way "Nigeria's first tablet". They (Encipher) have no design lab nor Manufacturing plant in Nigeria. Their efforts should be commended but no need saying they've done what they haven't (they themselves don't even claim any of these). below is their address (which looks... I reserve my comment). Anyone who wants to know if Saheed or Anibe (Co founders of encipher) indeed made Nigeria's first tablet can call or pay a visit to confirm.

wow, i'm so excited. At least something good is
comming out of a NIGERIAN MUSLIM GUY. enough of
of this BOKO HARAM BOMBING report everytime. I'm really
happy for Saheed and also happy for Nigerian Muslims
and christian. At least, we are making progress.

^^^^

Saheed was Born a Muslim but today is a born-again christian. Anibe is also a christian. Please lets leave Religion out of this. The point here is- a Nigerian has done something commendable. Lets encourage him and leave tribe and religion out of it.

nice

At least better than nothing. Nice work saheed

Nugwax: ^^^^

As much as you want to leave religion out of the discussion, you misinformation is of epic proportion...Saheed is a muslim QED. what will you gain by lying though?

China will make anything you want and put your brand name on it.
What's the concept here guys? Are we celebrating an indigenous product or a branded "chinko" android device?

I cannot blame the guy because he never for once said he made it (as in the video). I am blaming the media. How is this "made in Nigeria"? The parts were not even assembled here.

Which kind country be this?

And see Nairalanders shouting they are proud. . .

I still give it to the guy. Welldone at least he has given Nigeria good publicity.

Thanks you jare. China can make and mass produce anything for anyone if given the specification. It's no biggie.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

I must say I AM IMPRESSED with this INYE. Looks good and stylish.

I wish 9ja can just shut up and support our local products. PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

By the way when this guys markets gets big (By the Grace of God very soon) he will b able to employ lots of the jobless pips on 9raland.
This makes sense instead of buying ipad n creating jobs abroad, lets support INYE and create jobs for u and I.

SO HAPPPY TO SEE THIS.

THUMBS UP 9jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Nice one! Keep it up Saheed.

it's a good idea- well done to him for thinking of that.

Now he just needs an apple styled pc called ayettymama and his brand will truly make sense

duh my dad owns an ovim pc tablet make in aba i think

OVIM tablet PC is made in KADUNA by MICROSCALE EMBEDDED LTD and fasmicro www.microscale-embedded.com http://www.facebook.com/microscale. The new versions are OVIM PLUS and OMNIPAD. Their latest product in market is AUTOMATIC CHANGE OVER SWITCH.

I have the inye and its totally useless. use it for 30mins and it can as well serve as your hotplate to cook beans!
