Yeah… Prime will pwn. I’m liking this thing so far… but I’m coming from a stock Droid, overclocked to 1.1.

lol

Although, I fucking hate skins… stock Gingerbread FTW.

Dang. Dual core 7" android tablet for $199? A Blackberry Playbook running a customized version of Android. If the Kindle Fire can be hacked to run an unmolested version of Android it will be awesome.

I’ve been getting 4g in the ecc south parking lot, and at my gfs house near the stadium. At least one tower must be fully active.

I wouldn’t even consider this an android device. Amazon seems to be going down their own path and really separating itself from Android by just using the guts of the OS as a starting point.

Something tells me this thing is going to get hacked to bits. Look at the dev support for the Nook Color and this thing’s way better.

oh yeah, I agree there…they have the media base for a consumption device like this. It does nothing for me though. I need something that I can actually be productive on.

Then you don’t need a tablet at all. They’re good for one v one presentations, and fucking around.

I might try to get one of these from my wife for Christmas, definitely if it gets hacked to run CM7 or some such shit. Even if it doesn’t I don’t really care. I’d use it for book reading, web browsing, maybe movies on an airplane, and twitter. If they do a decent job with amazondroid it’d be fine stock.

haha yeah

I swear though, the iPad thing is catching on at work. People keep bringing them to meetings. I see them sit there and do NOTHING with them. Every 20 minutes, they jot down a little note on it.

News flash, buddy, there is free pens and paper in the break room for taking a tiny amount of notes. Also, I noticed that same guy carries an iPhone, so don’t give me the “email/calendaring” crap. You already get that crap on another device. /rant

yeah I’d use it more for eBooks (any study guides, take apart guides), quick reference for troubleshooting, blueprints/wiring diagrams for our buildings, etc and still I don’t really think I need one…I might get one of these just for my eBook collection that I … :snky: acquired :snky:
