    “If Xiaomi are able to work their low-cost, high-performance magic on the tablet market, the TV market and the PC market, the still young start-up could quickly become a global player!”

    keep up the gut work! the price is what makes the difference, we can get other brand with the same specs but not for the same affordable-magical price…

    if they go global please keep the “low-cost, high-performance magic”…..if they can, they could conquer the world!!! =)

    all that specs for just $160, wake up man!

    i think they dont have to rush in launching a tablet, why not wait for intel to release baytrail? in tel stated that they will push the price of baytrail powered tablets to as low as $199, that means the baytrail chip itself is not expensive….why not use it fo xiaomi mipad??? intels dualcore clovertrail proccessor is known for its great performance (comparable to arm’s and nvidia’s quadcore) plus the battery life is awesome….
