The Wikipad – A.K.A. the Android tablet with detachable gamepad controls – will finally land at retail starting on October 31. Specifically, the game-geared tablet will be available at GameStop for $499, which is in line with similarly featured Android tablets. Pre-orders for the device will open tomorrow on September 7. Purchasing a Wikipad from GameStop will net buyers special extras “including exclusive free, full-length game titles.” Pre-orders will include both free games and an issue of the digital edition of Game Informer.

The Wikipad features Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), a 10.1″ screen, 1200×800 resolution, an Nvidia Tegra 3 T30 1.4 GHz processor, 1GB DDR2 RAM and 8GB 16GB of flash storage (expandable to 64GB).
