It looks like the JooJoo tablet may actually beat the Apple iPad to market after all. There has been some question about the availability of the device, thanks in no small part to ongoing legal challenges from Michael Arrington’s TechCrunch. Arrington originally partnered with the tablet’s manufacturer, Fusion Garage, to develop what he called the CrunchPad. But after a falling out, Fusion Garage went it alone, renaming the device the JooJoo.
Fusion Garage showed the device off to press in January of last year, beating Apple’s iPad announcement by more than a month. Since the iPad’s debut, however, information has been scarce from Fusion Garage. Today, however, the company announced that the device has begun shipping. Customers who preordered the tablet can expect to get one in their hands as early as March 29th.
Interested parties can preorder the JooJoo from Fusion Garage’s site for $499.
