My internet is even slower, 512kbps, it would take a couple hours to download a gig.


I know that not having an SD card port does limit you, but it still doesn't restrict WHAT you put on it. If the new version of Android didn't let you download anything (like IOS) then I would call it restriction.

I think it could have been cut out to save cost, remember that if you buy it from the Play Store you are paying cost.
