Another piece of junk...

I bought an Archos Gamepad. Looked like what I wanted.

Android 4.1.1, external micro SD, could be used for gaming. (I want to run an Atari 800 emulator.)

Charge it up. So far, so good. It asked to set up date and time. I override with manual date/tiem. Ok. It ask to install the app that came with the tablet. I say Ok. They install. I decide to power down to do other things. Ok.

I come back and boot up the Game pad.

Locked!

I click on the lock to unlock it. It tries to go to Google - no WiFi connection. Won't unlock and turns itself off.

A $180 dollar piece of junk!!!!!! Going to the Internet should be a choice not a hardware-stopping necessity!!!!
