Android based Augen Gentouch tablet no longer available at K-Mart

It looks like the Augen Gentouch tablet is no longer available at K-Mart. This tablet surprised consumers late last  month when it was released at K-Mart for only $150, but failed to impress many people. On top of that, news had leaked out earlier this week that the new tablet was running a pirated version of Google’s OS, which may have been what caused the retailer to stop selling the device.

According to the forum post, a consumer who had ordered the tablet online received a cancellation notice in his email. They state:

The cancellation email did not include a reason but did include an 800 number to call to ask why. I decided to do just that. The sales rep was very helpful in trying to locate more tablets in their different stock systems but was unable to find anything. After checking that she decided to find out when more were going to be in stock only to learn that it appears there will not be more in stock. They are out “indefinitely”.

Easy come, easy go, I suppose.
