    Ematic has a tendency to release a lot of tablets, so what's one more? In the case of the eGlide Pro X, quite a bit. The newly shipping model uses a 9.7-inch, 4:3 ratio display that will be quite familiar to some, but which is still quite rare in the narrower, 16:10-happy world of Android 4.0. It's thankfully more than just superficials that get the boost. We'd say that the Pro X is just that slightly more pro than its XL Pro ancestor through a faster 1.2GHz processor and a doubled 8GB of built-in storage. A microSD slot, HDMI, Kobo's book app, and Ematic's own Google-replacing software all show their familiar faces. The $220 price currently makes this latest of eGlides a good bargain, but we have a hunch you might want to wait until Google I/O -- you never know what you might get.

    Is your love of Android tablets matched only by your hatred of spending more than $120 on Android tablets? Have a gander at the eGlide Steal -- Ematic's seven-inch slate rocking Ice Cream Sandwich and a rather budget-friendly $119.95 MSRP. So, what will your $119 and change get you? A 1GHz processor, for starters, plus a gig of RAM and 4GB of storage, augmented by 5GB of cloud storage and a microSD slot. You'll also get a front-facing camera -- turns out if you want a camera on both sides, you're going to have to pay a bit more, Uncle Pennybags. Press release post-break.
