Postby DaB00m » April 25th, 2012, 9:47 pm

Hi all,

Hi DaB00m
welcome to the forum.
If it isn't broken then don't try to fix it!

Hiya - had mine from EB for just over a week and all works well - impressive tablet for the price. Shame there's no mobile iPlayer for ICS though.
Always said that I would never buy a tablet!

If you get a unit that doesn't have the typical faults, I would imagine you will be impressed :).

Even if it does end up faulty, Ebuyer will take it back for a refund or replacement, so you won't lose out.

Just returning my second one back. The first one, the G-Sensor was not working and the second one has some parts of the touch screen not working so some letters on the keyboard don't work! It came in a perfectly sealed box but had 90% battery charge on it! I don't really know what is happening but there seem to be a large number of defected units! This time I am asking for a refund and maybe wait for a while. Also its price dropped down again. It's now selling @ebuyerexpress ebay shop for £167.99 with free delivery :o

It is really a fantastic tablet though and well worth the money but if you can get a good one :shock:
Today i will be nice to all the people that i meet regardless of their attitude towards me!

Thanks for all your advice think i'll cancel and re-order it as there waiting for stock might as well get that £10 discount! thanks Topman

Only just joined. Had mine a week and I've given it a real work out this last week without any bother at all. Used quite a few ipads etc that friends had, and messed with two ipad 3's and so far this for under half the price seems a steal.

I bought a 32Gb card today but hopefully someone here can tell me how to get stuff on it. I doubt you'll regret it.

Got an Android phone so familiar to the process, first plug it into your tablet and go through the settings to mount the card this will prepare it for use with your tablet, once that's done you have couple of options. You can use a micro sd card reader and plug it into your computer and copy the files across like you might with a usb stick, or you cab plug your tablet in directly and copy them using the tablet as a adaptor. Android is quite good a picking up any old formats so there shouldn't be any need to convert your music, videos or documents for the tablet.
