Spark project reveals that the new Spark Linux Tablet will be equipped with a 1 GHz AMLogic ARM Cortex-A9 CPU, supported by 512MB RAM and Mali 400 graphics powering its 7 inch, 800 x 480 pixel capacitive multitouch display.

The Spark projects goal is to launch a tablet that is open as possible and all software will all be open source. The Spark tablet will initially ship starting in Europe, but will then open up to global customers. In the future Spark project hope to bring 3G and GPS support to the Linux tablet.
