NEC Medias N-08D
Novelty Equipped with Technology
"The technology called HD Reverb is used to create complementary haptic effects in real-time. So when you're watching a video, the device knows when to vibrate and (even more importantly) how much vibration is needed. I watched a fireworks video as a demo and was pretty amazed with what this tech can do." — Intomobile
"It's how NEC has managed to package together the various components into something so thin and light which really impressed us, though. The Japanese market gets a TV tuner, and there's a special haptics system with five levels of response to suit different alerts. A 3,100 mAh battery drives the 7-incher for up to 690 minutes of 3G talktime or 900 hours of LTE standby, and the display - although not quite of the resolution of B&N's NOOK HD - has great viewing angles and impressive brightness levels.
