Kohjinsha PA series tablet ships in November, value not guaranteed

October 26th, 2009

Kohjinsha had a slew of portables on display at CEATEC earlier this month, including the classification-bending PA. Its design fits in somewhere between a MID and a tablet netbook, with its 4.8-inch, 1024 x 600 touchscreen and 1.33GHz Atom processor, but now we’re learning that it’s price roughly equates to a netbook and a MID. The device hits Japan early next month for ¥69,800, about $770. That’s certainly not cheap, but if you need one elsewhere you’re probably going to need to go through an importer, and their prices are ¥79,800 and up. That’s about $870. Yikes.
