Computers 10.1" Android 2.2 1GHz Dual Core Proc by Viewsonic - $284.99 - Page 2

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).

other than the processor that is. the processor on the viewsonic curbstomps the archos.

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 tried putting DD-WRT on my router and bricked the shit out of it...

I believe so. I believe Full Tilt is all flash based so it should be no problem.

Hootie · 03-23-2011, 02:36 PM

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

Demonpenz · 03-23-2011, 02:37 PM

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

**mikeyis4dcats.** · 03-23-2011, 08:05 PM

$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.
