In the latest Micro Center flyer:

$39.99 Azpen Innovation A700 7" Tablet
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.aspx?sku=853853

The specs are pretty much what you'd expect for a $40 tablet - 1.2GHz
ARM Cortex A8, 512 MB RAM, 4 GB Flash, 7" 800x480 display, ARM Mali400
GPU - all cutting edge...for about 3 years ago. It does, however, come
with almost current Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. (No mention whether it
comes with Google apps.)

Cheap way to have a touch-screen wall panel to control home automation,
use as a robot "face", remote CCTV image viewer, or Flickr (Facebook,
Instagram, whatever) connected photo frame.
