The Web Browser is a standard Android one - nothing fancy, but it works. The device can be a tad sluggish when there's a lot of active content like Flash on the page though... but again, that's pretty standard too. At least unless you've got a dual core device with hardware acceleration for the browser.

I would hold the button for 20 seconds and it would stay on. I decided to return it, so I wiped all the settings it came up with a message that I had a low battery and had to plug it in to proceed.
Anyway I returned it and got another one.

Odd. I had that too - Tier 1 support couldn't figure out what was happening either, so I took it back. Looks like it's not just me.

Well, such is the nature of the econo tablet.  |
Yup. Not bad for $200, and at least they can sell it up here unlike the Kindle Fire. We'll see how well that device runs - the screen on this one's impressive, at least. Can't wait to try it in sunlight tomorrow.
