The announcement was made on the Windows blog today, with it being revealed that the Nextbook will be available at Walmart retail stores as part of a Black Friday promotion.

Joining that is a 0.3-megapixel front-facing camera and a 2-megapixel rear camera.Under the hood lies an Intel Atom quad-core Z3735G 1.8GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, and the aforementioned 16GB of storage (the microSD slot supports cards up to 64GB). Connectivity includes both 802.11 b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0, and there's a 3-axis g-sensor to ensure users can play their games.

Rounding out the features is video-out via a micro HDMI port, a standard headphone jack, and included charger. It appears that bundled 16GB micro SD card will be available with the tablet through December 31.
