Well, as anticipated I guess, I bet it will cost too much though, shame really - probably a good device
▼

msh100 27 Jan 2010, 19:23
I think they do - they look awful :D
Parent

pala 27 Jan 2010, 19:27
well this device really doesn't talk to a lot of people, only to the hardcore buisness men who needs a PC next to them due to contacts / news / work :/

My EEPC is awesome. Got Mac OS X 10.6 running on it smooth as hell!

Poor design. The front looks so shit with that huge black bezel!

What you reckon.... $600 with a 2year connection plan of $15 a month...
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 19:21
i would rather think it's like ipod touch, without monthly payment (i'd say around ~1200E)

Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 19:22
It's permanently connected to the NET so it must have some kind of 3G connection + Wi-Fi.
Parent
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 19:23
ahh if its permanetly...well then it's just too much
Parent
▼
msh100 27 Jan 2010, 19:22
Well to be honest, the black will probally go, it looks similar to iPhone OS, hacked in minutes
Parent
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 19:38
Yeah, it looks like it probably some kind of iPhone OS 4.0 implemented with Mac OS X Mobile
Parent

teurer müll für den iMer

Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 19:42
Dependant on the price, I will either buy this one of the 2nd Gen. Would be brilliant for movies!
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 19:45
no? :/ how can like 10 inch screen be brilliant for movies???
Parent

I am with dean here, I WANT! But needs to be good value
Parent

Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 19:49
Value is most important. Nice to see that the iPhone apps work narratively either in windowed or full screen! No word on flash yet? :( Disappointing if it's not on it!

Hopefully Orange get the carrier in the UK. Discount, Discount, Discount!!!!

Flash would render half the apps in the store useless, vast majority of them have free flash counterparts.
Parent
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:04
I wasn't talking about flash in the apps currently. I'm talking about it in general. Stuff from the net and new apps that can implement.

Brazzers for example :D
Parent

Dark 27 Jan 2010, 20:23
I'm simply saying why they don't allow flash in general (the apps of which I speak are flash apps), if you could use flash in the browser then people wouldn't buy the apps. An example being bejeweled, one of the highest grossing apps, with flash player you could play it for free in the browser along with a huge list of other flash games.

Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:25
Wouldn't be as good as playing in an app running narratively though. Plus, most people have already go those apps for free :D

Stuff like BBC sport videos, we can't watch those on the iPhone. It's bloody annoying!

Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 19:48
Considering I spend and will be spending alot of time on the move, that's how it will brilliant for me :D
Parent

pala 27 Jan 2010, 19:51
i doubt you are on the move so much to need that really...but hey enjoy it if u want it ^^ im really only here because i heard they are giving some info about the new iphone OS :P
Parent

Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 19:53
It's a coming!!! This tablet isnt running on 3.1 that's for sure!!!!!
Parent
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 19:53
honestly im getting bored of iXxx..
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 20:16
30$ a month....lol'd
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:19
Man, that's not bad for unlimited usage. Plus it's prepaid with no contract, and the pad's are unlocked so can be used with any sim!!!

$499 for the device!
Parent
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 20:21
yeah, but 16GB and only wifi :S gl with that :S but still VERY very cheap, am surprised
Parent
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:23
Yeah, fucking makes a change for Apple. But one problem. With the UK's extreme tax rates and overpricing, that $499 will become £699 before long :D

I'd import since they are sim-unlocked!
Parent

msh100 27 Jan 2010, 20:20
$499
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:21
extra $130 for 3G though.....
Parent
▼
msh100 27 Jan 2010, 20:23
Still about 1/3 of what I expected
Parent
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:24
Read reply above :D
Parent
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 20:25
ok the design is just beautiful..
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:28
One thing just put me off.....

No multitasking.... It has a fucking 1ghz processor, surely it's not that difficult. Looks stunning though!
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 20:45
where is the software :/
▼
msh100 27 Jan 2010, 20:47
Like what ?
Parent
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 20:48
the so called iphone os 4.0 :(
Parent
▼
msh100 27 Jan 2010, 20:50
Do you really need to know anything about it? from the demonstration it is practically identical to iPhone OS
Parent
▼
pala 27 Jan 2010, 20:57
pretty much, since i wasn't following much about the ipad, didn't interest me a lot. was mostly waiting for news about the new os :/
Parent
▼
Skydeh 27 Jan 2010, 20:51
Dissapointing :(
