Re: WTB: 10" Tablet, NO iPADs!

Hello there Gten and OMJ.

I have both viewsonic and a tp so I will give you pros and cons on both.

Viewsonic is fun little machine when it works.

Company denies it's existence and won't help devs in any way and won't offer any support. Won't release any drivers even though they will say after market roms wil enhance the performance of the tablet. It comes broken straight outside the box actually. LCD is ok but has a horrible viewing angle. Easily over clock-able and there are alot of roms out for it to tickle your fancy. (although it has diminished quite a bit last couple of months)

After trying everything, I just run froyo for both software & hardware acceleration. (OCed to 1.5ghz)
Hard time playing big videos btw.


Touchpad

1.2 ghz dual core is under-clocked for battery consumption. (so i heard..)
I have mine oced at 1.5 ghz and it's noticeably faster without much difference to the battery. All the basic things that it's supposed to, it does very well.
It's bit heavy but it's packed with features.
I'm a big fan of android OS and was waiting for it to come to TP but at this moment, I don't really care. Web OS is surprisingly nice.

If any questions, let me know.
