Moreover, an earlier report from Notebook Italia leaked the GLBenchmark listing of a an Asus tablet called MeMO Pad ME302C with an Intel x86 processor.

Apparently, the model number ME302T hints that it could be a sequel to ME301T MeMO Pad Smart 10. Moreover, the upcoming model is likely to be a budget offering priced at $299 (approx. Rs 16,000).
