tchart: IlDuce, Im interested to hear how you are getting on now? Any better/worse?
Somehow I missed your comment.
Over the course of a few days of ownership I got over the fact it won't play TV on demand, and have grown to like it.
It turns out all the crashing only happened that one day straight after the upgrade from 2.0 to 2.21... turning it off and back on that first night fixed it and it never crashed since... So I guess its like installing new things on a PC and the OS requires a restart to work properly.
The battery life is great, I used it several hours every day, and it went for 12 days until I had to charge it.
I use it for Trademe, email, geekzone, stuff, metservice, geonet, wikipedia, youtube, google and facebook (only), and I like how well it works.
As previously mentioned the speakers are quiet playing youtube videos, and are in mono only, but playing MP3 files is louder, clearer and in stereo.
I've just been given a Vodafone Android phone, so I can use it as a hotspot for the Cruz, but since the phone can go onto google market, the last few days I have been busy downloading apps so cruz has sat unused.
I see that Warehouse Stationery now sell the T105 (Sale starts today, $229), which is the original tablet advertised erroneously in their mailer. Also note the description of it on their site is STILL wrong (screen aspect for starters), and can they advertise it as being able to use Amazon Appstore when not available in New Zealand?
