I got one off the silk market for about US $100. It is a 7-inch model name claims to be M003.It has android 1.6 (newer Android is 2.x). It has a 2G space built in but with an SD card extension to get another 32G. There was a 10-inch device for maybe another 50-100 more, but i figured id try the smaller one and if it worked fine i'll go for the next. Limited experience so far: -A little patience required when selecting something.. -It seems fairly usable for web browsing. - I have not been able to connect successfully to the app market. It requires some gmail address and rejects whatever i give it. I havent had time to debug why. -Trying to access ietf wpa network it insists i provide a 8 character alphanumeric password; and so it rejects my 4 character "ietf" password. -The accelerometer seems to be working ok but reaction is slow. - The sample videos on disk look reasonably ok For what i need this device so far hasnt met my needs. At minimal i need to be able to connect to the app market download some games. cheers, jamal On Sun, Nov 7, 2010 at 9:43 PM, Peter Musgrave <peter.musgrave@magorcorp.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Has anyone seen cheap Android tablets around anywhere? > > Any idea if very cheap ones are likely to be units which failed QA? > > Thanks, > > Peter Musgrave > _______________________________________________ > 79attendees mailing list > 79attendees@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/79attendees >
