I'd buy 10 of these..... seriously! At that price!!!
I'd buy it also. If there is tons of support this console will be a beast.
Don't forget about emulators. Think of the possibilities this can have. Having all the apps like, Pandora, netflix and other apps just like the other gaming devices to stream media go on social media.
Sounds like an exciting project. Hope it pulls through.

Some of you may remember the old Commodore Amiga- It was a PC in the 80/90's that introduced things like multitasking, multimedia, and coprocessed graphics when they weren't commonplace and sold about 6 million units. The brand has long since died, although it still has a band of fanatical followers who insist it will rise again.
I was surfing the web and ran across this. Look familiar?

Heh awesome.
I wonder if they did any adjustments to the UI to make it more 'amiga -like' or their own launcher called "workbench".
I'd buy that.
So much nostalgia for Amiga, but then I guess I'm showing my age
OMG - Amiga adopted the G-Tablet!
Those specs are pretty much the G-tablet, right? Except they list an actual HDMI output and no full-sized USB host.
I had an Amiga 1000 in '85 and blew my friends away. Used it well into the '90s.
So ... a G-tablet with an Amiga ROM?
Interesting to say the least.
Did you guys know that someone has purchased Commodore and relaunched it as Commodore USA? Can't post a link but just google "Commodore USA"
Showing my age as well, I had one in HS and took it with me in the Navy. If anyone can pull that ROM and ports it to the G-Tab you'll make a lot of us ol'-timers happy. Perhaps a VEGAMIGA Rom? I can even see some vinyl design. I can perhaps setup some AI's for those with access to SignLab, or other cutting software - Lol.
Says OS is is 2.2 upgradeable to 3.0.
It's definately the GTab/Vega, and for $150 more than you can buy them for right now. I think I could buy an Amiga sticker a bit cheaper.
Based off of the info on the site, it's definitely Google Experience Android. The boot sequence on the 7" model looks cool, though:
Do they have a Vic 20 model (my first computer)? Maybe a 64 model?

Memory Lane
My family didn't have a lot of money when I was a kid so I couldn't afford an Amiga. Instead, I spent my summer job money on a Commodore 128 instead (with dual-sided floppy drive) and spent what was left over on my first car (1976 Plymouth Volare coupe V8) from a family friend. Ah... that brings back some really sweet memories...
I still have the 128. I haven't had the time to play with her in a few years and was looking for a good home for her since I can't give her the attention she deserves.
Original Amiga owner here (yeah old). Still have a boxed set.
In the news now is that The new Commodore is launching a c64 with new pc innards, blue ray etc. Looks just like the old one though, rumored to go around $700 to $800.
Saw that too. Rumoured to be a netbook in c64 clothing.
My family was soo poor that we could only afford the Texas Instraments TI-99a.
I remember spending a whole afternoon programming a polar bear walking across the screen. Then having no way to save my work after running it.
That and rhe knock off games of pacman and spy hunter.
Those were the days.

The photo that has been making the rounds of the new 64 that looks the same as the original 64 is incorrect. The new version looks pretty modern like other all-in-one PC's in a keyboard form factor.

I have been corrected. You are right. I had read an article about a week ago that said the updated C-64 was going to look like the VIC-Slim. I guess the author of that article had jumped the gun and reported crap. Thanks for clearing that up.
Speaking of the Amiga, did anyone ever get decent emulation running for the Android? I'd love to have Workbench on my Gtab for giggles.
Never had an Amiga, although my Uncle had a few and was a huge fan for a while.
Heh. My family was so poor, my first computer was a second hand Trash-80 from a garage sale.
Still got it, somewhere! Tape drive is kaput, though.

lol sorry but if you want a high quality tablet, this is not for you.. this is a great tablet to jump into the tablet game because of the low-cost but comeon now... its not that powerful..
Hahaha these little crap tablets give Android a bad name! They're saturating the market with low-price, low functionality tablets that virtually NO ONE wants. When it comes to cheap tablets I'm pretty sure the Fire and the Nook will be king (but mostly the Fire), so there's really no reason to have these things. They give ifans a reason to bash Android IMO.
This actually looks better than the Fire to me. I might be a buyer for my 7 year old...Why not? It doesn't look terrible. Wonder if it is completely 100% lead-free? lol
I'm cool with this. Cheaper tablets give us more options. There are people who basically just want a tablet to read ebooks and play the occasional angry birds. That's what's Android all about. Having options.
LOL, looks like asus slacked for too long and got beat by some cheap china tablet company...
You snooze, U loose!
Ohwell, atleast when the prime finally does come out it will have ICS hopefully right around the corner, and hopefully it will make the diffrence we all been looking for.
That chinglish makes my head ache, coming from a Chinese guy.
Lol, Asus is pissed already, but this will kick it
But unfortunatly there are no measurments on the page.
It looks pretty thick.
So what are the dimensions, how much does it weight?
Also it says it is already sold out when I click to order it.

I don't see that it's selling today, I see it's claiming to be the 1st ICS tablet. No different than Asus Prime has been claiming. The race is on to who will be the first to actually be the first to deliver one to a customer
well, it isn't the first Craplet device..
Different options for different budgets. That's not such a bad thing. But keep in mind this $100 tablet comes with a $60 shipping charge that makes it not so great afterall.

no gameoad support I believe. plus its not needed. the touch controls are great. anywhere you touch on left side of screen an on-screen analog stick will show. transparent. you use that to move. right side of screen you can use your finger to pan around the scene. or tap that side of screen to arm your weapon. then tap again to fire. its very simple and works great. I love that game. have it on my Ipad and now on my prime. still haven't bear it yet. game can get very hard and sure to scare you. best played with headphones on for the full fear and scare effects. plenty of times my woman heard me violating..lol it'll really make you jump..
I can't wait till Dark Meadows optimized for Tegra3 finally releases. they said Q2 in tegrazone.

That is the EXACT type of control scheme that works better on a gamepad. It works "well enough" on a touchscreen, but is by no means at all the better way of controlling. However, you did basically affirm that I will be able to use a touch profile with the game, so that makes me very excited!
Hi, a noob question here. Can i buy the game on my mobile's play store then download it free on my the tablet that I buy afterwards? Is it that i buy a game under an id then I can dl the game on any platform so long as I'm using the same id? Thanks for helping!

You can buy a game that is compatible with any device you currently own. Once you have bought it it can be downloaded to any other devices you own, or may own in the future.
Thanks dude!
I picked up Dead Space last night and played it some and it looks like it going to be Great game. Quick question is there a way to stop at a point in the game and Save it there to resume later? Or does the game have certain points in game play that it Saves itself?
Thanks

As you progress there are points where it'll save automatically. Another place where it saves is when you reach the limitless booth area to upgrade you Welsh n armour with nodes. Also the store to purchase new things at. You will see them if you haven't gotten that far yet.
Bought it since it was on sale, and while the controls are awesome, I really wish it was a port of Dead Space and not just a typical mobile game out of the franchise. I'm sure since Dead Space is a 7.5GB'ish download off Steam that it's sure as heck not gonna be as small a download as Dead Space Mobile, but hey, $10 more than the games usual price and I'd certainly have bought a reduced-graphics-quality port, and already own a copy of the PC version.
I also think the controls would be rather easier to use on my phone than my tablet :'(.

it crashes to homescreen for me, too, when it tries to DL files. Gee, I wish EA could afford better servers /s
oh man, these $0.49 and $0.10 deals are killer for me. I buy way too many apps that I never play/use
Dead Space doesn't start on my prime, it crashes just after the EA logo during the loading screen. Anyone else got that issue?
I know many have asked for a Nabi/Nabi2 section which I wish there was one for a Q&A section there but here it goes and hope it gets seen here........
While searching around the interwebz on the word "Nabi2" just to see what I would find I stumbled upon this little jem which I didn't know about and was also to come out late December and early January marketed for preteens.
Now since the specs are similar ( being the CPU's are more than likely the same ) I would assume it would be possible to just simply swap over Jelly Bean to our Nabi 2's correct? I wonder how easy to modify for GPS and a bigger internal flash memory would be on these as well since there is so much space inside. I like that the XD comes with NFC capabilities as well.

The micro USB is not. It's proprietary, so my plans to use a USB-Ethernet adapter are foiled for now.
Shape is same as micro USB, but it's bigger than mini USB.
I need to find my USB A-A adapter. Perhaps OTG is already implemented in the supplied USB cable.

I hate those proprietary cables, I would not have expected that from an Android device, most devices are universal now, either Micro USB or Mini USB. However, there will be generic ones made eventually, it wont be long before you find them for a few bucks on ebay, just like apple usb cables.
Apparently, these are not supposed to even be for sale, just a rumor, but it would explain why you cannot find accessories for it, even on their site.
I'm looking for a good app that would give me the same features that a Harmony universal remote gives me. I have a harmony remote and now that my phone has an IR Blaster, i guess i'd be ready to sell it if a good app comes by. The harmony remote works by grouping devices by activity. As an example, if i press watch TV, it would turn on my TV, set-top and amplifier and set all of those devices to the right input, same thing if i wanted to press Play Game, it would then turn off set-top and change TV input to HDMI 2.
I tried looking in the playstore but was not able to find anything that had over 2 stars.
Any suggestions?

I don't think the IR blaster's API is open to devs. I tried accessing it in a test app I made and wasn't able to. It's not handled by the system's SensorManager. I hope Samsung releases an API like HTC did for the One's IR blaster.
This IR sensor is going to be both a blessing and a curse. It reminds me of the days of my OG EVO which was one of the first android phones to have a front-facing camera. It wasn't until the next generation of devices that APIs for front-facing cameras became standardized and that meant wonky support for it early on.

The GS4 is actually the 4th or 5th device to be announced with an IR blaster. the galaxy tab has it, the note 8.0, the ONE has it and a huawai phone too. Back in your days, nobody gave a crap about the LG evo, that phone was not popular enough to motivate any devs. So it would be only logical now that 2 flagships from the 2 biggest android vendor have it that the first dev to do one might make tons of money. A good logitech harmony remote could cost 100 to 200$, i would pay 30$ for an app that does it all.
I'm pretty sure the Peel app that come's with the Note 10.1 does everything you mentioned. You can set up all your devices with the input they are on and then select what activity you want to do and it switches the inputs and powers on the devices (see screenshot). Either I just haven't figured out how yet or that capability did not get carried over to the WatchOn app.

except for the fact that it's cheaper than all the other ones posted in this thread so far
That's actually really nice. Uses air gestures and when answering a call it mutes the TV
