bryanzs, please reread my post above. It contains more info on programs that I've discovered that work on the A81/W1060, including reversi and many many more.

Freda is available from the Freda website and works.

sorry for bumping in the comments.
just wanna share the experience..
for mobile, i tether my phone's EDGE connection (a windows mobile phone) through WMWifi software. or in certain windows mobile ROMs provide built-in tethering.
yet te connection is not a speedy one.. but it serves well out of office/home usage.

Hi, Warone. No, it's a Nokia E71, and it includes a "limited functionality" version of a program called "Joikuspot" http://www.joikushop.com/. In the limited version, it creates an open (unencrypted) wifi access point - in the full (paid) version, you can lock down the access point so it's not available to everyone in the immediate area.

It seemed pretty slow, but for what I needed - an occasional ability to use the A81 when no wifi was around - it should work fine.

All - I just finished reading through most the reads. I just received my CT-MID04 from Chitech. Currently testing the system out - but for now here's a quick spec update: 720mhz ARM11 processor, 8gigs of Storage space, seperate 512RAM, .3mp camera, MicroSD slot, 2xUSB (out and in), 7in single touch screen, GPS, Wifi B/G, HDMI jack, and Win CE r3. I'll have a better detailed review soon. If you have any software in mind that you want me to review on the system pls send email!! Cheers.

Is It the same as X10 MID that I posted earlier?
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=84725

It's selling here http://www.pandawill.com/X10-MID-Tab...MI_p36006.html

Because if it is, then:
1) Real battery life (because on pandawill they said 6-7 hours) in different conditions
2) GPS - is it there?
3) Video playback can it play many different formats without converting them?
4) Interface is it fully English?
5) Other OSes?

I'm looking forward to see you review!
