Hi, what number tablet is?
Thank you for making this model available. The referenced article states this tablet is 22.6 x 17.0 x 3.7 mm. Can you confirm this is the correct dimensions as that is very small. The stl model download is internally sized at about 10 times that size which seems too large.
