The viewsonic, while good, has a very annoying design flaw and must be rooted to work properly. you are far better off with a Acer Iconia A500 - IMO, the best tablet out there because of features and build quality.

I don't know if it could update to 2.2 or not. I learned the hard way that a resistive screen will increases ones frustration level immensely. After two cheap tablets, I am happy with my Viewsonic gTablet for $269. Still cheaper than most, but it is fast and versatile, running a dual-core Tegra2. I can install 2.2, 2.3, and 3.0 on it for testing LC apps. And having smooth Netlix playback is my favorite bonus. ˜Roger _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com [1] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode [2] > > _______________________________________________ > use-livecode mailing list > use-livecode@lists.runrev.com [5] > Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode [6] Links: ------ [1] mailto:use-livecode@lists.runrev.com [2] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode [3] http://www.mollysrevenge.com [4] mailto:roger.e.el...@sealedair.com [5] mailto:use-livecode@lists.runrev.com [6] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
