India - home of incredibly cheap cars - is set to release a $35 (£23) Android tablet, aimed at students and school children.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
The tablet is known as Aakash - which means sky in Urdu - and has been developed by Datawind, a small British company.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
Aakash will run Google's Android operating system and is subsidised by the Indian government.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
An initial run of 100,000 tablets will be made available to students, before being manufactured in the millions over the next few months.</div>

Made in India</h4>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
The assembly of the device will take place in India, with the aim of increasing the mere eight per cent of it 1.2 billion population who have internet access.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
"Soon, a $35 computer will be made available to every child in school," said telecoms and education minister Kapil Sibal. "The tablet shall help enhance the quality of learning of children."</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">

<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
But it could also signal a revolution in tablets - the netbook has its roots in the similarly low budget One Laptop Per Child scheme.</div>
