Nice specs on that. I especially like that the screen isn’t that cruddy 1024×600 that I see so often.
Too many of these tablets (this one included) suck because they linked themselves to TMOBILE! They have the worst connectivity and service regardless of the price of their plans.
Thanks for the great spec sheet. Most sites have just glossed over the specifics. Even LG didn’t list the bluetooth capability of the device. Mine arrives Tuesday so I guess I’ll know more then.
Spec is not bad.. similar to Xoom except the screen size. Price and carriers suck. Also not sure if it will be more attractive than iPad. now I recognize how important Battery life is. Any other competitors could beat ?
I have iPad, gallaxy tab, and generic android tablet.
