I've been waiting to order one and was also trying to decide between it and the Archos 101. I broke down and ordered it today. I leaned more toward the G Tablet because of the hardware and ability to run custom ROMs. I can't wait to get it and wipe it and have a great tablet.

Hi,
I'm thinking about selling my less than two month old G tablet in new condition. TNT Lite 4.2.4 is installed and working great. It would include the zpad dock with an extra kodak charger , 16GB micro sd, and the sears carry case. Let me know what you think I can sell this for. Thanks
Just wondering if anyone was able to buy Asus today?
I was one the few that got in on the tigerdirect bundle yesterday. Should be in my hands in a few hours.
Mine is due in tomorrow. Grabbed it from NewEgg during one of the small windows where it wasn't listed as sold out, and because it's shipping from Memphis (where I live), I paid for 3-day and I'll get it overnight I was close to grabbing the Iconia instead because I hate having to chase things down, but hey, I lucked out ... though the Iconia is a great tab too, either way I would've been happy. But I think the Transformer will get more XDA love.
enjoy them.. Hope someone can post nice pics..
I really want to get this tablet, but the lack of a usb port on the tablet itself is making me think twice. It's almost like they're forcing you to buy the keyboard dock.
That wasn't an issue for me, I've already got a dock preordered. Plus the extra battery and full sd card slot on the dock is a plus since the only thing i use my usb on my gtab for is for my external hard drive. Extra battery on the dock will let me run alot longer using it.
Hey all, I am looking to get a tablet.
I don't mind getting a refurb or a good condition used tablet.
Here is what specs I am looking for:
10-ish inch screen
Rootable
Dual-core processor
HDMI would be nice
USB slot and/or memory card slot
Prefer at least 16gb storage
So far, I have found the Viewsonic gTablet, Motorola Xoom, the Acer Iconia series, or the Asus Transformer...any others I should be looking at? Of those listed, which are my best bets?
TIA!
GEt on cowboom and look for some Asus Transformers. And if those aren't your cup of Tea they have zillions of tables for around 250.
Heylo... I used to have an Acer A100 and was very happy with it, bought it refurbished for about $190 many months ago. It fell out of my cargo pants and cracked, so I've been looking for a replacement to purchase in February. I had thought about replacing the glass, but it seems the cost would be about $130 just for the parts (I have succesfully removed the glass, so it doesn't seem too challenging).
But then the Nexus 7 came out and I really dig a couple things about it: it's an Asus brand, and it's resolution. I started to compare Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus and Tab 7.0 2, but didn't really want to deal with Samsung adapters. Then the A110 came out - MicroUSB, HDMI, expandable -- I'm pretty near sold.
But the Nexus 7 has a great case by Speck and much cheaper similar case, whereas the Acer A110 doesn't have anything similar. A good case is important to me.
Theeeen I started poking around and found out there is a Jelly Bean ROM for the A100. By far, A100 with a case is my cheapest option, the Nexus 32gb my most expensive. So my main concern really is, if I go with the A100 and depend upon community development of JB, is it a wise enough choice? I of course want something stable and fully functional.
Browse the forums for the device and see if they fit your wants. That would be the easiest.
Hi,
I am looking for a shield tablet but confused about the battery problem. I found one used here for about 150 € and not sure if I should buy it. If I turn it on and IT gets disabled by nvidia, can i reactivate it? Or van I just install a custom rom before and be happy with the tablet?
Thanks!
I bought an 32Go and the battery is an B01*, so no problem, ask to the seller if the battery is an Y01* (check in the settings) and if yes don't buy it.
No, if it is y01 just make sure they haven't done the recall yet. If not, you get a brand new one and get to keep the old.
I would not buy if is already recalled, at least not for that much. Maybe $50 us at most.
Not for $150. You can get a new one for $200.
