The Italian kitchen product company introduces its Alessi Tab, an Android-based tablet.

Unlike most tablets, the Tab comes in a digital photo-frame angular shape (making it stand upright) ideal for tables and countertops. It has a 10.1" touchscreen, 1GB internal memory, wifi connection and integrated camera/microphone.

The Tab's form factor combined with the Android OS makes it a potential home installation "remote control".

Alessi includes a number of apps for news, weather forecasts, recipes and timers.
