    Wouldn't get it myself. Are you specifically looking for a 7 inch? Maybe have a look in this thread.

    Not exactly a good sign when they can't even spell Android correctly in their marketting shots:

    My mate has one. For me, it's too big to be a phone - and too small to be a tablet.

    He loves it though

    I picked up one of these 7" tablets last week on adverts for 100 euros.

    Great little device but christ is it slow out of the box.That 533mhz processor is a bit of a scam in all fairness--its closer to 300.

    However Ive just started flashing roms onto it and with custom roms the device is actually quite nippy now--almost as fast as my x10.The cpu is clocked to 400mhz now/useable ram is up to 200mb from 100/120mb.
    However in order to regain that ram some apps are disabled like the camera,bluetooth and 3g.

    Ive flashed it 5 times now in order to find a balance that I like and the rom Im using now has 3g/390mhz cpu/190mb free ram but no bluetooth/camera which I can live without.

    Im now using it instead of the laptop for general browsing.

    Gonna pop it back up on adverts during the week and buy a 10" one to mess about with roms etc.
