Intel has launched two tablets tailored to cater to the growing education sector. The two tablets are a part of Intel's big push towards increasing the use of technology in education. The company hopes to replace textbooks and notebooks with tablets, which they cite as lighter to carry and more convenient to use.

　　There's a 7-inch 1024 x 600 tablet powered by an Atom Z2420 SoC clocked at 1.2 GHz, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal storage, an IP41 certification that isn't worth much and a promised battery life of 8 hours. The larger 10-inch 1280 x 800 tablet is powered by an Atom Z2460 SoC clocked at 1.6 GHz, 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage. This model comes with front and rear cameras and a stylus and promises 6.5 hours of battery life.

　　Intel's two new classroom oriented tablets look acceptable on paper, but the silence over the pricing leaves us worried. Budget pricing has never really been the company's best feature, but such products can succeed only if some concession were given in the selling price department, something Intel never really came to terms with.
