10.1" Android 2.2 1GHz Dual Core Proc by Viewsonic - $284.99
Dropping this off in GC due to the nature of Woot and it will likely sellout quickly.
http://www.woot.com/ http://sale.images.woot.com/ViewSoni...abStandard.jpg http://sale.images.woot.com/ViewSoni...CmndDetail.jpg 10.1" TFT-LCD Screen WiFi : 802.11 b/g/n 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 - Dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 CPU 16GB internal memory (expandable up to 32GB via SD Card) 1080p playback Weight: 1.55 lbs |
Apparently it is already getting some love from the XDA community.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=841 They have ROMs available that enhance the performance of the tablet after being rooted. Reviews on it say that the stock OS is junk. Has a headphone jack, USB, and MiniUSB port. No HDMI port which is a bummer. |
bought one
|
I would but the resolution sucks(but it's still equal to the ipads!) :-/ Nice price but tablets need real HD resolutions!

Ordered one. Thanks.

The Archos 101 at $350 is a more polished product out of the box. I was looking the Viewsonic but it seemed you had to hack the shit out of it to get it working properly. The Archos took a lot less hacking (Android Marketplace and Flash being the two biggest).

yes, it takes a bit of tweaking to get it right but man... it is worth it for the processor alone. the viewsonic is running dual core 1ghz proc |
I'm gonna need someone to hold my freaking hand hacking this thing...
I tried putting DD-WRT on my router and bricked the shit out of it... can only imagine what I'm going to do to this bad boy |
bought one after looking at it at Office Depot over lunch.
|
Errr, what is it? A monitor?

damn...maybe I'll just try to flip this for a profit...I'm sure after this w00t off everyone will be trying that...this was a luxury buy...not something I really needed
|
I probably would have waited until easter. They are supposed to drop in price around then, but it is a solid by at Woots price
|
for those that ordered, here is a great deal on a case for it

$45 and you get a dock which gives you a lan port, and more importantly an HDMI port. Also, by using ES File Explorer you gain access to your network under the LAN tab and can copy/paste/stream files. Ipad killer right here folks. As soon as a 3rd party Honeycomb is released.... this this will be a BEAST. |

Dear sweet baby Jesus in a manger... woot sold over 10k of these in the span of 24 hours. 93% of the people that bought them... bought just 1. Mostly non-resellers. That is AWESOME.
Nearly $3m in revenue generated by woot.com today. |
I bought one of these about 2 months ago and I gave like 409 for mine, as soon as I got it home I put clockworkmod on it and TNT Lite and I now have the full market place working thanks to this link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-xVo3OmyZg My phone is a Nokia E71 on straight talk , you can download a free app to use the phone as a wifi hotspot. If anyone needs to know anything about this device, I have one in hand. |

anyone have links to how to root this?

Quote:
Beware - apparently firmware version 3991 is not compatible with most of the mods yet, and developers are working on it. Do not root yet if you have 3991. |

As I got the Woot deal, I am excited to get it and get started. Hopefully it won't have 3991. |

Also I despise shopping or looking for stuff in stores. |

Responsiveness is very good and the battery life is excellent.... I had no problem when I paid 409.00 for mine even at that price and I do not regret buying it... Angry Birds kick ass on the big screen... :thumb: Surfing is a breeze. Tapatalk works well as does Forum runner... Pandora works fine. Internet radio is good. I doubt you will be disappointed.... Was told after you modify it with TNT or the other famous one it is about the best one on the market for hundreds less than the XOOM. |
Since this is likely going to be an ongoing discussion, I'm moving it to the Media Center.
|
Also it accepts a mini sd (I have a 16 gb in mine)
Also it has a Full size USB slot and if you are a reader of the Nook , they have an app. Wife likes to read her books better on the Nook than the G-tab because there is no glare on the screen and the nook is lighter but if it's a low light situation, the G does well as a nook reader... |

Just curious to see if I will lose some of the included apps once I root it. |
Quote:
The forum you need to ask any and everything is here I am by no means an expert but it was simple enough for a dumb old country boy to figure out, I am sure the geniuses on this forum will have no problem.:thumb: |
oh and as far as losing anything... If you have a Droid now and use your email on your new device (gmail) all those apps you purchased for your phone are available to you to download, you do not have to pay again.
And if that's not cheap enough for you, just go to the Google and type someappname and apk and you will get a place to download that, you will then be able to install from the sd card and to the sd card and not use up your internal memory. Is it better than your laptop? No... is it fun to mess with when you are laying in the bed and the ole lady don't want to make love? Yes |

As far as the rooting stuff, I don't know your tech level but please be careful, I don't want you to brick it... Android is built around a gmail account and it's exactly like a Droid but it's just bigger and you can't make calls on it.... Good Luck |

You guys will have to let me know what you think. I'm holding out until the Honeycomb tablets start hitting the market in force, but I refuse to pay more than $500 (probably $400) for one.

Paid $75 for it at the time and its never even been used because the camera I purchased to use it with was a dud so I sent it back. I really need something with that capacity in a Micro SD. |
I bought 2 of these at Christmas
http://www.cobyusa.com/?p=prod&prod_...4&pcat_id=1013 Total Junk, battery life about 2 hours if you are lucky, I took both of them back for a refund. http://www.geeky-gadgets.com/wp-cont...oid-Tablet.jpg The battery life on the gtab is impressive.... Quote:

the one I ordered from wOOt has shipped via fedex

what's the point of having "1080p playback" on a 600 line screen?

Someone on Woot got their GTab today. Says its firmware is 3389, one step below 3558. So everyone should be good to go with modding it. One of the XDA mods said to go ahead and do the OVA update to 3558 first. Here
Still waiting on mine. Looks like I am in the second round of shipments. May not get it till end of week. Almost tempted to get the one from Tiger Direct and get it by tuesday. |
Mine arrives on Tuesday. :)

That is what I get for waiting until 11:40PM to put my order in I guess. :D |

I bought mine around 6PM. However I have received stuff from Woot before without ever receiving the shipping notice. So maybe we'll get lucky. |
