I am launching a new service which allows you to target test devices and testers based on your requirements. For example you can indicate that you need 50 testers and specify the type of Devices, such as OS, tablet, rooted... and Demographics such as age, location...
The Beta starts in a few days and is of course Free. If you are interested please let me know.
