stpat1: u must be ashamed of urself for asking for a free sample. Church rat. For me I am definitely buying one as soon as I get to lagos cos it can do all and even more than an Ipad can do, so I've going for it. Its even cheap, its about 50k

pretty_boi: Cnn just premiered a newly made android OS tablet that's made here in Nigeria by one of our own______his name is Saheed Adepoju & the name of the tablet line is "Inye" (meaning "first" in one of our Nigerian languages). I am honest that the cnn reporters were really very excited about this product & they could hardly hide that fact. They asked about how Nigerian people were reacting or relating to the new product & they were really disappointed to find out that there's a stereotypical illness of Nigerians not patronizing our own made products which I also see as "a very bad culture."
I'M TIRED OF WE BLACKS & AFRICANS BEING THE WHITE MAN'S SLAVE,I'M TIRED OF US BEING THE WHITE MAN'S BI*T*CH...I'M TIRED OF US BEING THE PUSH-OVERS,BEING THE SIDE-LINED ONES,THE ONES WHO CAN'T EVEN MAKE THE CLOTHES THAT WE WEAR,I'M TIRED OF US BEING THE ONES THAT DON'T HAVE A GLOBAL VOICE COS WE DON'T MAKE ANYTHING IN OUR COUNTRIES.....Everything starts from somewhere & little drops of water makes a mighty ocean,never despise little beginnings, let's support our people & show some love, in no time by the Grace of God we'd have several Nigerians competing against each other in such fields & Nigerian products would be competing globally against known names like Apple,HTC,Samsung,Toyota,Mercedes-Benz,Honda etc.....

The 'inye' tablet is just a rebadge of a generic chinese clone tablet that people like you are trying to trick unsuspecting folks that its a 'Nigerian tablet'. it's the usual underpowered, cheap chinese crap...you deserve a hefty slap for trying to pull this m0r0nic guilt trip of being the 'white man's bitch' over a crapware tablet.
Nigerians will only be free when they realize their own consumer rights and power. Anyone who works hard for a living deserves the right to be allowed to spend his/her money on the best value for money...and a rebadged Chinese tablet running Android 2.2 on a slow 1GHz CPU is not value for money at 50K.

blink182: Bull's eye. ℓ̊ must be insane τ̅☺ buy this tablet.

Fhemmmy:

I honestly blv with some encouragement and support, the guy could even take Nigeria to places . . . . But i do feel you still

Tundeobash: This is cheering news. The government and other well meaning Nigerians should rise up to encourage and support this young inventor. This is our first and it should be celebrated. I look forward to a day that it will be available on supermarket shelves.

Mr man....I hate it when people talk with so much confidence when they don't know crap....who told you it runs 2.2? Yes there's an earlier version running 2.2 but the one premiered on cnn runs android 3.0.....look man,the specs aren't over the top but they are very very cool & the tab itself is price-friendly for people who aren't really inclined towards supersonic specs. By the way,it's the vision behind the whole project & company I'm really happy for,I'm proud of the guy who's just 28 years old by the way. You don't expect an Apple rating equivalent just yet do you? Don't be a kid,you & I know that capital & funds aren't always there to kickstart projects so typically you start small & keep growing big. 2face wasn't a superstar when he started singing,he grew into that,same with d'banj,same with Kanu,same with Okocha,etc ....Bill Gates & Steve Jobs weren't millionaires running multi-billion dollar companies in just 1 day,but they grew into that. Anyday,any time, I would support this guy & any Nigerian product like this with whatever I can. Give these guys a few years & by the Grace of God they would be making us proud to be Nigerians. At least check their website & facebook pages & you see more that these guys are guys with a vision.

Leopantro: i don't care if it was assemblied in nigeria with parts that where imported from God knows where,the bottom line that we have an android tablet made in nigeria.and bone what you say,that it got good reviews from Gigaom and Slashgear in the tech world is enough testimonal for it sales. i admit,with a RAM of 256MB, a processor speed of 800Mhz and android 2.1,it is well below par but it is thr FIRST of its kind in Nigeria so i would support the guy in anyway possible. there is a hot market for tablets and if you can not afford to buy an ipad (which most nigerians can't)any tablet would be appreciated (most people don't even use a tablet effectively).i hope to see better products from the guy

for those talking about ipad and kindle or galaxy tab, they don't have usb ports,memory card slots or HDMI port(i love this one). i have a friend who has ipad 2 and has booked for an ipad 3 but she saw my android tablet with HDMI port and immediately went and bought one (was wondering what was run but she is a woman with plenty money and no clue on technology).so each has its advantages and disadvantages.

texazzpete:

1) The tablet was NOT assembled in Nigeria. Were all our previous words lost on you? I shall not be blamed if you have difficulty understanding written English

2) The tablet has not been reviewed by Slashgear or GigaOM. Where did you get that idea from?

3) You claim it is 'well below par' yet you urge people to go and buy it? Weird.

4) There IS a way you can support it. Buy the bloody tablet and post your review here for us to see.

5) A tablet costing 50K is NOT affordable to most Nigerians. A new 16GB Blackberry Playbook costs N45k in Ikeja. That's cheaper and a better value.
