Here it PICOpad Axioo, The Newest design of Axioo. These devices are not a tablet, nor a phone, but call it a MID (Mobile Internet Device).Axioo Picopad is essentially a tablet with telephony capabilities such as mobile phones. Multifunctional Tablet PC to phone. This is much like that offered by Dell Streak or Galaxy Tab. Onthe software side, AxiooPICO Pad buried Android 2.2 Froyo long with services from Google, such as Android Market, Google Map, Google Calendar, Gmail, YouTube and GTalk.
Unlike other local tablet, Toshiba Picopad of trying to look thicker by pinning one of the distinctive culture of Indonesia into a tablet.
Of course you wonder, what Indonesian culture that might be included into the tablet. Among the many cultures of this beloved country, is chosen Axioo batik as a sweetener to give the impression that this
tablet “Indonesia really.” Various style batik ranging from traditional to modern is set in a digital format that you can use as homescreen wallpaper.
If you try one of the batik wallpaper for display on the homescreen it. The result is quite interesting and batik was performed with a slick on-screen Picopad which has a resolution of 800×480 pixels. With a resolution of it, browsing activities on the internet or reading email is not constrained. Physically, the screen size is 7 inches. The size of it feels right, not too small and not too big. Because of this reason makes the whole quite compact physical size. All sides Picopad nothing is plain, because each side has various support tool
functionality. On the top you can find the SIM card slot and micro SD / SDHC, and volume buttons. While on the bottom side there is a mic, jack 3.5 mm, mini-USB port and a small button to reset.
A pair of stereo speakers located on the right and the left (near the Power button) from Picopad. In addition, four main functions are a row of buttons on the right side of the screen under the form of a touch button.
Picopad also has a camera as much as two pieces, one major 3MP camera is behind and another one is on the front VGA camera for video calls. Armed with Froyo (Android 2.2), Picopad running smoothly despite only using the Qualcomm MSM 7227 600 MHz speed. This is quite a relief because previously we had been skeptical given another tablet mostly use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon with a speed of 1 GHz. Nevertheless
MSM 7227 performance here is good enough and during the testing proved to still be able to serve Picopad. For smooth application, Picopad equips themselves with 512 MB of RAM memory. The amount of this seems
to have become a standard tablet of the present to keep the tablets do not slow down as many applications running in the background.
Picopad has 512 MB of internal storage, but unfortunately the capacity available to users only 172 MB. It spelled out a number of very small considering Android users are usually happy to install a variety of
interesting applications. But luckily there was support for moving applications to an SD memory card. So applications that already support App2Sd can be moved to the SD Card and do not meet the internal memory. Picopad has SIM card slots right next to her micro SD slot. This is because Picopad has a cellular function that can be used like a cell phone. So no need to worry if you are in a place without Wi-Fi signal. Use only HSDPA data access from your pet.
However, because of its form factor, called the absolute Picopad rely handsfree / speakerphone. The good, loud stereo speakers capable. Mic is also quite sensitive, so to speak by putting those on the table do
not hinder talks.
In general, the performance of Toshiba Picopad including good. We did not experience significant problems during testing. But one thing noticed was this device a little hassle when faced with applications that demand high graphics performance.

better than Google’s handset output is official.
