I finally ordered the w1060 off ebay ($139 w/free shipping). New! Seems like a steal to me.
I've been contemplating this device since Nov 09. and it looks like it has improved over the months to where it's a pretty decent mid.
Now I'm going to throw some backwards thinking (going against the grain) into this forum...
On May 2nd I bought an 7" Android device. On May 28th I sold it.
Why?
I believe I hate Android. Easy interface but awkwardly clumsy.
Don't get me wrong, Android is great for small phones... that's what it was designed for. But when you get into large 7" real estate you're pushing the OS to it's present limits. I felt like my device was nothing more than a huge cellphone, not a fully operable computer.
No matter how you might gripe about Windows CE, for those who wish to use it that way, it can be operated like a functional computing device. The basic desktop might look 12 years old but when you add the right apps and let it rip, you know you're going to be doing stuff your cell phone just won't do.
Android on the W1060? Hardly. That's not the direction I want to go with this.
I'll let my cellphone run Android.
