First Impressions

Got two from Best Buy (for gifts but I'm SURE they will want them set up).

It's very pretty, quilted back has a nice feel (had to buy a $45 plastic back cover for my iPad to make me think that it would not scratch my wood furniture), moderately heavy.

Very nice packaging, even nicer than KW or KT. Box comes with
* Vox
* micro USB cable
* strangest AC adapter I've ever seen (hard-wired micro USB, and the two-prong part that plugs into the wall comes disconnected; to allow other AC prongs to be attached?)

I can't find a quick-start card though there are several pieces of documentation.

I plugged via USB to my computer. The screen says
USB Mass Storage
(Android robot image)
USB Connected
You have connected your tablet to your computer via USB. Select the button below if you want to copy files between your computer and your Android's SD card.
(and a soft button that says) Turn on USB storage


So - it doesn't appear to charge via this mechanism as there are no other lights or messages and no option to cancel.

Need to read manual so I can use this thing.

Edit: OK after R-ingTFM I plug it in using wall charger and update via WiFi. The screen provides step-by-step instructions. Turns out what looks like a glossy manual is the quick start card. It's now downloading the update.
