A Chinese company named Eken will be bringing a budget-conscious Android 4.0/ICS tablet to the U.S. soon. The tablet is called the Eken B70, and will retail for just $99 bucks. Of course, at that price you can't really expect stellar hardware specs. Here's a breakdown:

• 7-Inch low resolution 800 x 480 pixel display
• 1.2 GHz Allwinner A10 ARM Cortex-A8 single core CPU
• 512MB of RAM
• 4GB of storage
• Capactive touchscreen, Gmail, Google Maps, and the Google Play Store
• Front and rear cameras.
• HDMI output
• Full-sized USB port
• A mini USB port
• A microSD card slot
• The Eken B70
• Mic and speaker for playing music or video or for making voice or video calls

Despite the low-end processor and RAM it does have some surprising add-ons for this price-point. It's already on sale in China, and will come to the U.S. shortly.

This sounds similar to some models of the Freelander PD10 or PD20. Full size USB seems a plus, but the 2300 mAh battery doesn't sound like it will give much battery life.
