Would it be impolite to ask why you still bought one then?

I'd already seen the first review you linked to - where the guy from jkkmobile made a video that lasts for half an hour - and he actually seemed happy with it. Making comments like "Windows 7 really enjoyable on T91". He gave it a pretty good run down in that half hour and showed it doing all sorts of tasks including net surfing, working with video, etc. It appeared to be the early T91 version, rather than the current T91TM but he seemed to think that it performed well enough for what you'd expect from those specs. I can't recall any major complaints that he had with it overall. I didn't watch all of the second one, but the guy certainly seemed to be making a bit of a hash of it, and it sure did look a lot clunkier in his hands.

When I assessed the T91TM with a view to possibly buying one for myself (after reading Jack Swinden's review here at Mobileread) I did check out a number of such videos and it looked as if it would do the jobs that I was looking for it to do. I wouldn't have expected much speed from it, nor did I need it. As it happened it didn't make the cut because there were others available that fitted the bill better. But I'll certainly bear your experience in mind if I ever decide to look at it again.

Cheers,

Chris
