Fusion Garage Grid10 tablet available for $200 less than originally announced price tag Fusion Garage's new Grid10 tablet is finally available in the US with a price tag that is $200 less than what was originally announced.

The 16GB Wi-Fi-only edition of the Grid10 is available for $299, while the 16GB Wi-Fi + 3G model costs $399. Earlier, the manufacturer had priced the two models at $499 and $599, respectively.

Many believe that HP TouchPad fire-sale might have prompted Fusion Garage to drop prices of its new tablet.

In the UK, interested people can place pre-orders for the Grid 10, but the tablet will not actually hit the UK shores until 24th of October.

The Grid10 tablet runs on a customized operating system based on Google's Android 2.3 kernal, and has its own set of non-Google apps. It should be noted here that there are no familiar Googley touches and no access to the Android Market.

The new 1.5-pound tablet comes equipped with a 10.1-inch display that offers a resolution of 1366 by 766 pixels, NVIDIA's Tegra 2 processor, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera and 5800mAh battery.
