Say what you will, the past couple of days have been littered with signs of a rapidly expanding set of functions that the iPad can perform.

    It's a world's first coming from an organization you've never heard of -- when you live outside of China, anyway. Taking Google's newly minted OS and slipping it into a reasonable chassis, Ainovo's Novo 7 Basic could all right be a sleeper hit a number of the tech-obsessed masses.
