Hardware-maker Velocity Micro's design philosophy is to provide products that are "aesthetically pleasing, blazingly fast, competitively priced and designed and built in the USA". Although Velocity has yet to add "powered by Linux" to the list, the company recently released the Cruz D610 and Cruz Q610, affordable Android 4.1 tablets powered by dual-core and quad-core ARM processors, respectively. Both devices feature a 10" capacitive touchscreen, camera (D610 front-facing, Q610 front- and rear-facing), Google Play, Flash, custom software suite and access to Kindle for Android and the Amazon app store. The company says that these new tablets achieve this year's goal to blend the enthusiast level and the mainstream to create products with mass appeal.
