China Communist Party members can now carry tablet PC to verify identification cards, read the blogs of cadres and manage state-owned firms without fretting that using a bourgeois Apple Inc iPad will ruin their street cred.Enter RedPad Number One, an Android-based tablet computer filled with software applications catered to a party official’s every need for control. Delivered in a decadent leather case for 9,999 yuan ($1,600), it is twice the price of Apple’s most expensive iPad 2.RedPad’s price was high, RedPad Number One spokesman Liu Xianri said, because of the number of pre-installed apps that cater to bureaucrats and state-owned company managers.

Sounds like a “third party opportunity” for Apple.
