Cant wait to root
I got one this morning along with 4 of my co-workers going to be a handy little gadget! .... that is after I root and apply the appropriate rom
This is a sick deal. Just ordered one.
Hi,
I got mine yesterday and rooted/installed Caulkin's rom. Runs like a dream like 2450 quadrant scores. So nice
Woot woot woot
I ordered one today. Digging through the forums for root instructions and advice. Looking forward to playing with this one on the weekend.
There is going to an influx of Gtab users. I had about 6 friends and family order one lol.

I just saw the Taxesuck discount, but already bought one from Texas. Well it's only 5 bucks .
In for one! Once it arrives I'll NEVER get any work done (of course that was the case with my HD2 too).
One of my sons has been drooling over my Gtab since Christmas, and I've been feeling bad because we had gotten him something else already. So thanks for the chance to 'redeem' myself at less $ !
In for 1...

WOOTED and Registered in a half hour.....
Saw the Viewsonic G Tablet on Slickdeals and went to WOOT. Bought. Went to XDA, looked around. Registered.
Really looking forward to rooting and hopefully having a decent tablet when I go to England in two weeks. Is that possible? Maybe, but I have a LOT to learn for sure.
thank you! just came upon this thread and ordered one for myself!

apparently woot takes a couple weeks to ship things out???
just heard through the grapevine, hope it's not true and you get it in time
Thanks for the tip, just ordered one as well.
they charge me $25 for tax, and I live in NYC

on 3/23/2011, you successfully wooted.

You want 1
ViewSonic gTablet 10.1" Multi-touch Tablet
You ordered 1 ViewSonic gTablet 10.1” 16GB Multi-touch Tablet - Android 2.2, microSD, USB, 802.11n, Flash, DivX.
which each cost $279.99
for a subtotal of $279.99
plus tax + $25.29
plus shipping + $5.00
for a total of $310.28
Bought one too. Already have a Nook Color rooted 2-3 times, so rooting this one will be a small learning curve. Couldn't resist this price. Went by Office Depot on the way home from work just to look at one and test it. Decided the screen wasn't as poor as some have said. Sure, the viewing angles are bad. But I'll be the only one using it and sharing isn't an issue. Straight on viewing is really sharp. Bottom line, Tegra 2 processor, 10.1 inch, high resolution, 802.11n for $279.99 plus $5 shipping (no tax for me)! That's got to be one of the best deals of the year. Clerk at Office Depot told me they don't have them in stock because the company basically stopped selling them when the new model was announced. He said they would be getting the new one next month. Even so, they had their GTablet "on sale" for $379.99 plus tax!
Guilty too, just ordered a couple myself

Sorry, but woot's shipping is about 7-10 working days and my experience (just two states away) is on the high side of that. I wish they would introduce premium shipping for a few bucks, they would make a lot more money. That's ok, it will be worth the wait. Once you root, install CWM and load a good ROM - you will be glad you pulled the trigger.
Does England even have wi-fi? They sure don't seem to have dentists.

Hello, guys i need your suggestions. My kids want tablets for Christmas. My daughter mentioned a Nook for school work. I'm not sure what all that does and if I'm making the purchase I want to make sure I'm getting the bang for my buck. She has an older laptop and I'd like for whatever I purchase to replace that as well. Kindle? Android? Amazon Fire? There's so many!
Anyway, how do you think about the Zenithink C71 with android 2.3 OS? i heard a lot about Zenithink tablet, seems a good China brand? and it's on sale for $158 with shipping on SpeMall.com.
So, any suggestions or other recommendations? Thanks!
Kindle fire... Don't buy those weird brands from china.

I've been surfing around for a cheap android tablet running ICS and I found the HK-10K. Problem is I have no idea if it's a rebrand or a knock off or what:
http://www.merimobiles.com/HK_10K_10inch_Android_4_0_Amlogic_AML8726_M_ARM_Co_p/meri3551.htm
Anyone have anything good or bad to say about these?
Wow! i want one!
been looking for some decent fake ICS tablet with decent spec for a while
but it's only single core 1.2 Ghz still not bad
1 GB RAM
great for games, which is what i want it for
$205 price tag + free shipping sounds great
however the only gotcha i don't like is that website, never deal with them, can't say if they are safe or not
time to check DX and see if they carry it
Feedback
Yeah, I'm familiar with the product. I'm one of a growing number of tablet users who enjoys operating the pinch/zoom feature by placing my testicles on the tablet and manipulating them with a combination of muscle contraction, ice cubes, and prostate stimulation. In the short time I had to test this product at Best Buy I found it satisfied all my demands and then some. You'll find you don't need to shave as often since the screen is durable enough to take even several days worth of stubble without scratching and the front facing camera has exceptional micro detail for close range "aiming down the sights" photography.
All in all this is great product and fantastic bargain. I'll definitely be buying one immediately after posting bail.
1024x600 for 10.1" screen? Really?
Even though it's not released yet, but this look more optimistic.

They are safe, I bought MID816 from them last year.
Ordered mine a week ago, shipping should take 2-3 weeks. Know alot of peeps who ordered on this website, all orders were delivered.
Just recieved mine yesterday. Overall pretty nice tablet and well worth its money. Unfortunatly ive have problem with the battery and I hope someone here has an idea on how to fix this. Cus I dont feel like shipping the device back to Hong Kong all the way from the Netherlands :/
Once its fully charged ill disconnect the tablet and the percentage drops to like +/-60%. Sometimes its a lil above it, sometimes its a lil lower. And it also drains the juice like a moddafokka.. I can maybe use for 1 hours nonstop, then it has to charge again.
Now I know i bought a budget device from some unknown brand, but still shouldnt this be a little better?
On adroid phones its possible calebrate your battery. Not sure if you need root access for this though. Should that be possible with a tablet like this aswell? And does any of you know any way to make this happen? Or at least fix my batter issues. Cus I hate paying 200 dollars for this kind of crap.
Any other advice regarding this issue is very much appericiated.
I need help protecting my Prime. So my daughter is always asking to "Play" with my Prime..I just can't let that happen..not yet. Yesterday she turned 9 and she received a whopping $400 in cash from friends and family, now she wants to buy a tablet like mine. I would like to keep it Android of course and around $300 -$350. Her mom has a Kindle Fire ,but the UI seems a little to difficult for her to navigate (Carousel). She does have experience playing with her mothers Samsung Fascinate phone and I see that Best Buy has the 7" Samsung Galaxy Tab on Sale this week. Is that a good option in your opinion? Or should I go after an Original Asus Transformer or maybe something else?
Your opinions are appreciated, and I Thank You....so does my ATP

We gave our 3 year old our Dell Streak 7, and bought our daughter the Vizio tablet for Christmas, that way they no longer ask for our two new primes.
Make sure you buy one with Gorilla glass. Also, the nook Tablet is $199 and is far superior to the Kindle Fire. Great choice for a 9 year old.

Nook Tablet all the way. bought one for my girlfriend for christmas. she kept asking to see my prime... and at 23 yrs old, she just doesnt have the maturity to handle it yet (god i hope she doesnt secretly troll XDA) lol
i rooted her Nook Tablet, and stripped the Barnes and Noble UI in favor of straight gingerbread, then got her golauncher set up how she likes. kindle fire seems to have more support, but the Nook has better hardware all around.

hahaha these days they'll just get tormented and made fun of if they don't have cool gadgets!
My 12 year old cousin has the 64gb 3g iPad, the iPhone 4s, the nintendo Wii, and Im pretty sure she got a 3DS as well.
I want to strangle her.
as for the OP, there really arent any super protective child proof cases for the prime yet, as far as i know
Nook tab has crap processor.

Just as title says. I'm looking to buy a tablet, preferably the S. I'm aware that the S is a fairly old tablet, but Sony hasn't announced anything new. Should I wait for a new model from Sony or get the S?
Sent from my LT15a using XDA
Sony S is a good piece of kit. Not sure about the "old" bit. It is less than a year old.
Wouldn't hold your breath on Sony making a new tablet though.
Don't bother it's a hunk of junk. you would be better off with asus transfomer prime.
Sony just upgraded S to ISC 4.0.3, so it is not old. I dout there will be new release soon. There is nothing missing from this, so just buy it. Works great for me.
Sony will be bringing s2 later tbis year with quad core processor, but I'm happy with mine.if you wee to wait then you have to wait and wait as technology is evolving at a fast pace you get new things every 6 months.so go for the s1 good machine

What a great input to the topic!
I say buy one, I love mine. It was worth every penny.
have a search round in these forums theres loads of love/hate topics to read and see what people think of it.

If you are buying new there are better tablets for the price.
Start at an Asus TF300 and go from there.
I was considering the transformer prime, or maybe wait for the infinity...
But the dilemma between that was performance vs. features. The tablet S has a few more features like IR blaster that really intrigued me.
The S is currently on sale for 329.99 for 16 GB. We'll see what happens I guess.
Sent from my LT15a using XDA
People must not forget the price diff on tablets. I would love a bmw x1 but cant efford it so i got a mazda 5 instead.
The prime is what, £499. Sony S is £299
Wait for the new one if you have the patience. It will probably be announced in a month or two. if you cant wait that long, the current S is not too shabby either. I still love mine. You might even get a good deal on ebay for a used model.
The transformer is not in the same price bracket, just so you know.
Woot had a killer deal on these last week. Brand new, 32GB with the cradle for $259 (plus $5 shipping). I got one for sure and can't wait to get it on Friday. It'll be replacing my HP Touchpad 32GB running Android 4.04. Too many issues with that beast although I love it dearly.
Xperia tablet is coming, better wait..

Yea I was on the fence for the Sony S, but that deal on Woot sealed it for me. Got mine yesterday and it is pretty nice. Do some price hunting. I agree, the retail price is high for a Tegra 2 tablet.
Also depends on your needs... if you do not really need cutting edge, HD screen, why pay for it.
