WePad, the better iPad from Germany!
Actually, I'm not really the Apple fanatics. But one thing you have to let the boys from Cupertino: When they throw a new product on the market, then come directly to tens of others and want to be in the running. So also the German company Neofonie, offering the WePad (eieiei when the time is not a dispute about the name) its own tablet.
Roughly summarized, the WePad a Tablet PC, with a large pressure-sensitive display and built-in Wi-Fi. Yes, that would be so rough description I would give someone who wants a quick explanation. But for the domestic Techniknerds like me, I naturally have some more information about the device and compare it with the iPad (if a comparison is even possible).

If one looks so this table, then the whole story looks quite neat. Furthermore, the device is installed in a fancy aluminum jacket and has some sensors such as a motion sensor or a light sensor. With the latter it would be possible to control the screen brightness automatically to conserve energy, resulting in a longer run time with the result. Clever.
What is still unclear, however, is the price. I hope that the manufacturer shall make no mistake.
