I got the Vox for my Niece and I've been trying it out so its ready for Xmas for her. But I just don't think this thing is ready for prime time! I have had nothing but problems. I can find work arounds, but the user shouldn't have to do this and a user that isn't experienced with electronic devices will have a hard time.

It doesn't charge except when turned off. The Wifi doesn't always turn back on. It freezes a lot and since the upgrade yesterday it 80% of the time won't come back from sleep mode. I read that perhaps it has trouble when you have wifi turned off and it comes back from sleep mode, but this just isn't a consumer ready device then.

And resetting the whole device to factory settings really isn't a good option for a three day old device with barely anything on it.

I don't think an 8 year old is going to be able to figure all these quirks out and its just going to be even more frustrating for her.

I hope I can take it back.

I'm very dissapointed.
