The new tablet is listed as being model number MS-N0Y1 and it has been seen on the FCC.gov website where the tablet was tested and approved for sale in the US. In testing the main specifications for the tablet were leaked along with a look at the tablet, its power adapter, USB sync cables, and bundled headphones.According to the FCC filing the MSI MS-N0Y1 boasts some very meager specifications. Inside the tablet there is a 1GHz single core ARM Cortex-A8 processing chip from the Rocketchip company, a 10-inch 800480 resolution touchscreen LCD, 512MB of RAM, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth built-in, a full-sized SD card slot with support for up to 8GB, a front and rear facing cameras, and a customized version of Googles Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread operating system is running on the tablet. In the design department this tablet looks every bit the part of a budget tablet.

On the front and sides MSI has used glossy plastic and on the back some matte finished plastic with a finish that gives the look of metal.

The tablet wont be winning any beauty contest thats for sure.However low-end the specifications are and no matter how cheap the design is MSI might still have a decent tablet on their hands, with the 10-inch MS-N0Y1.

If MSI goes ahead and prices the MS-N0Y1 at $150 or less the tablets glaring faults dont look so bad, because most of the tablets in that price range have these same faults if not worse.[Via]Check Out Other StoriesMSI Unveils Sub-$300 Android Tablets, 7-inch and 10-inch Option15 Tablets That Will Be Released Soon, And Their DetailsRefurbished Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi Tablet Offered At $404.99 ShippedTags: 10-inch tablet, Android, android 2.3 gingerbread, Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread, android gingerbread, android os, ARM Cortex A8, ARM processor, bluetooth, cheap tablet, dual cameras, FCC, google android os, low-cost tablet, msi, msi android tablet, MSI MS-N0Y1, msi tablet, Rocketchip, sd card slot, tablet, Tablets, touch tablet, Wi-Fi
