Melbourne, Australia, 14 April 2011 – Kogan today expanded the Agora range with the Internet TV Portal, 7” Tablet PC, and 12” Laptop.
The Kogan Agora Internet TV Portal: Powered by Android (starting at $149), Kogan Agora 7” Tablet PC: Powered by Android (starting at $139), and Kogan Agora 12” Laptop (Starting at $299/Standard and $319/Pro) go on sale today, direct from the manufacturer at Kogan.com.au.
All products in the new Agora range are currently for sale at market shattering prices on Kogan’s LivePrice pricing system (patent pending).
Ruslan Kogan said the new product range shows that Aussie companies are capable of creating technology that can compete on the world stage.
“The Kogan team has been working hard for many months to bring out the expanded Agora range.
“The Kogan Internet TV Portal is powered by Android, and it lets Australians experience the whole web on the biggest screen in their home.
“Everyone can now watch what they want, when they want. They can stream movies from content providers across the globe including YouTube, Ustream, and any website with video. They can browse the web, chat to their friends on social media, share and view photos, movies and music, and even play games like Angry Birds on their TV!
“The Kogan Agora 12” Laptop is a complete productivity device for the budget conscious. It comes pre-loaded with practically all the software you’ll ever need on a computer. At these prices, there is now no reason why every student shouldn’t have their own laptop.
“We’ve created a laptop that is not only extremely affordable and functional, but one that you’re proud to show off. It’s thin, light, and stylish.
“With the Kogan 7” Android Tablet, we have created a device with all the features our customers need, at an unheard-of price. You no longer have to feel guilty about spending big bucks on a tablet entertainment device.
“The products we’re launching today are a direct result of thousands of conversations with customers through Facebook, Twitter, and the Kogan blog.
“We’re delivering the latest world leading technology at prices everyone can afford, showcasing true Aussie ingenuity and innovation,” Kogan said.
