My point was that the hype touted:
Quote:
Although the eLocity A7 Internet Tablet comes ready for use with a selection of pre-installed applications for Android 2.2, it can be customized with third-party apps available online. Because it is an Open-Source platform, the number of applications designed for Android has skyrocketed. Almost 75,000 apps are currently available, ranging from Sip Phone to map and email utilities to apps that allow you to work with Microsoft Office files. Most of the apps are free to download and can be modified relatively easily. With Open-Source flexibility, you have the power to create your own applications or tailor existing apps to suit your own personal tastes. Now that’s freedom!
It didn't say a thing about the hassle involved with finding APKs without access to the Market, then having to manually install them, yada-yada-yada. Implying that it was as easy as doing it on a phone, while knowing full well that Google has not opened the Market to tablet devices.

Their credibility is suffering a little in my view.
