Could have been great, but it sure wasn't
It comes with a demo version of the GPS, which I knew before buying. Once my demo expired, it would not let me purchase the GPS license. Horribly frustrating. It did okay surfing with the limited plug ins, and the android store is blocked. It will not even allow you to install some APKs directly (like google maps) It crashed a few times. Sometimes it would hang during GPS use, or hang during audio playback. Playback, when it worked, was decent but I had a lot of files that wouldn't play using the included drivers. (can pay more for them, but if it wouldnt let me pay for GPS, i had no desire to try to buy a plug in)

Could have done better
Overall product is just so so.... Bought it mainly for watching movies on and you have to pay extra to do that. Andriod platform is nice, but has less you can do application and games wise than my Android Smartphone. Music is a pain to navigate through so I will stick with my Ipod for that. Thought it would be a cool device to have... now it is just another electronic device I have to charge.
