Cool - Might as well do this - Quadrant just gave me a score of 170 or so :rolleyes:

Tired of slow mobile - Thanks mate

ps No chance of Honeycomb I suppose with 512Meg of RAM

The new acer 7" honeycomb tablet has a tegra 2 and 512mb ram

Is that in reference to the vega? People seem fairly sure we'll get it, if not officially.

A couple of vega clones are saying 'honeycomb ready' and a few other 512mb devices are saying they'll support honeycomb.

I thought 512meg was borderline for honeycomb ? We'll see - Thanks for the info chaps

Interesting news, this clever pair have Honeycomb working on the Vega.

It currently runs slow as hell and most of the hardware isn't working, but it's one hell of a start and they seem confident that they'll have it running perfectly once the proper source is released from Google.

Brilliant.

Just picked one up today. Not bad for the money. What apps and games has everyone got going?

Just a bump, am tempted to purchase one of these. What do you guys reckon since this thread is a little old now.
Also can see the slow progress on the Vegacomb port. Wish there were less broken things like the camera working etc....

If you can find one then buy one. They are almost sold out everywhere, I'm typing on mine in this reply. Needs to be modded though to get the best out of it.

Just noticed that there might be a new Advent Vega 2 out in September.... Although same time as the new Archos tablet......
The odd times like this morning and yesterday morning Dixons had it in stock.
Still wondering about getting one though or waiting a bit longer.....
Hmmmmm.
