Selling this as I no longer need it.

I never did use it.

Ntablet is an open-source tablet for developers to learn and program. As a portable tool, it gives not only convenience to your projects, but also help to create more innovative designs as what you imagine. With it, you can start programming and developing anywhere, you can freely DIY and control TV, air conditioner, curtain, light, and even Robot.

The company is positioning the tablet as a one-stop replacement for a homebrew solution including off-the-shelf single-board computer, battery, touch display, camera, and speakers. Each tablet is provided with a GPIO break-out board, charging dock with integrated wireless serial connectivity, and an instruction manual which should cover the tablet's built-in sensors and GPIO capabilities.

Ntablet offers a totally new way to help develop applications, learn to program from zero, play video and games, and even compose your own Android or Linux device. The portability makes Ntablet quite strong, not only can you use it to DIY, but also as a remote controller for Robots.
