Keeping kids in mind, Oregon Scientific has launched MEEP tablet running on top of  Android Ice Cream Sandwich. Tablet features a 7 inch screen. Meep is powered by 1GHZ cortex A8 processor, 512MB RAM, 4GB internal storage, HDMI output, Wi-Fi, and a 0.3 MP front-facing camera. 

“We wanted to design a tablet that had all of the features and technology that tablets geared toward adults had without being ‘dumbed-down’ for 6-12 year olds. The challenge was providing them with content they would enjoy and that parents would feel confident was safe,” said Bill Fleckner, Vice President of Sales for Oregon Scientific, Inc.

Meep also comes with rugged silicone sleeve and bunch of pre-installed apps including Angry Birds, UNO, Toon Goggles, art and learning apps, kids can also download more games, books, videos etc from MEEP Store and Google Play

Priced at $150, Oregon Scientific is also offering extra accessories which includes piano, drum pad, headphones and microphone, joystick, steering wheel or dualplay Game-Pro Case.
