Viewsonic puts Android on 22 inch tablet

Yet another example of putting an operating system where it doesn't belong

Viewsonic VCD22 Android Smart Display

We've seen Android on some strange things recently. Case in point; Viewsonic have announced an 22 inch Android tablet. That's a lot of inches.

Admittedly it isn't a tablet, it weighs 3.5kg and needs to be plugged into a power socket, but it does the same things.

Running Android 4.0 - also known as Ice Cream Sandwich - the Viewsonic VCD22 is being dubbed a 'smart display' by the company.

It has a 1GHz dual-core processor and a 1.2 megapixel camera. Again, this is exactly what we'd expect to find on a tablet. There are also three USB 3.0 ports, HDMI, an Ethernet port and an SD card slot.

We're not entirely sure Android works on such a large device - the operating system looks uncomfortable enough on a 10 inch tablet, let alone a 22 inch monitor, but we applaud Viewsonic's scattergun approach to product development.
