I'm interested in the Tablet's market since centuries .
I'm really intersted in the Superpad II FT3 with the incredibile Tim ROM4E...
I would like to buy it and I've found shipped with DHL (this is what i want no EMS or HKP) at about 180 dollars with a 6000 (two 3000?) battery with 8Gb memory.
I've heard talking about clones not compatible with Tim's Rom...
1. Do you know any place selling this product FT3 8GB (I don't care if it's a clone of the clone of the clone it just should work fine) with DHL less than 180 dollars (better products will be welcome).
2. Megavideo App (or Megavideo itself) works Fine?
Just check it is a flytouch 3, it has ONE TF slot,not two and that it has a model number of DISCO or DISCO10, it has a 5 volt power supply and you will be fine
The problem of the EMS shipping is that in the rest of the world last 10 days, in Italy, thanks to the great Efficiency of the "System" it last more than 30 days. The DHL meaning Deutch Post arrives in 24/48hrs.
I've found an 8GB that seems legit with the DISCO firmware shipped with DHL at 172 dollars.
The only problem is actually the battery (3800mah), but i think i will buy it from ************, watch a Tutorial and in the meanwhile use my tablet.
Oh NO!! I've checked the box.. It's SUPERPAI III. What do you think.. It's good?
You didn't answer to the question about MEGAVIDEO App, does it work? Any other working methods?
Another one is with 9v 2a. With SUPERPAD III Box and 1 TF slot. Would it be legit?

I emailed Diglex to verify distributors and they sent me the links. So they seem to be official links for Diglex.
I upgraded to Tims 4e flawlessly last night. I have the full x600 screen and not the x576 that needs to be offset. After the ROM, It says DISCO10. I am presuming Tim's ROM did this. So far I have all of the love of IBEX for about $50 less than China Grabber.
It will be interesting to see what you receive. The Title says Superpad 3, the description says Superpad 2 and the man told you they would send you a facepad!!.. still.....good price!!
Looks exact same as mine externally. my box was white and said Superpad II. strangely says it has 2 TF slots tho, which obviously does not.
Just using up the old boxes!!! Its what is inside that counts
It looks good giubari, DISCO model, 7000mAh battery, single external tf slot, internal tf slot......Facepad!
Wouldn't it be nice if the sellers got their adverts sorted out!! I notice the ********** adverts contain several glaring errors.. in fact, the pictures are of two different devices!!

However when it will arrive I will make a Review, because i think that the price is good, the shipment is fast and the seller is communicative.
I made a deep research that lasted more than a month, so I think i'm making a favour to all the community.
What country are you in? And how long did it take from order to delivery?

DHL is always fat. I ordered it on Monday, today He told me he had shipped it giving me temporary tracking numbers, that after custom's HK inspection, will change in International Tracking numbers (tomorrow usually).
Then 48-72hrs and i'ts home. This is DHL usual procedure.

Hi dart,
Yes, it does but the 'de minimis' rules will apply.
If the value of the goods [sent from outside the EU by letter or parcel post] is less than €150 they are admitted to the UK free of Customs Duty (but VAT is still payable). However, Customs duty is not collected if the amount of duty due is less than €10.

Hope this helps...

Hi tbod...yes...but VAT will be collected, plus the charge levied by the carrier for the inspection. Usually (but not always)the 'post' services don't inspect because of the high percentage of 'non-commercial' packages of little value, but the 'courier' services are different. They deal with a much higher percentage of business packages. For example UPS ALWAYS inspect and levy the charge, a few days after signing for a UPS delivery you will get the VAT bill through the post!...I never use a courier service for this reason...
As always I told my Seller to declare a 30dollars value Gift....
Trouble with that is you are guilty of Tax Fraud, it is your responsibility to ensure the correct figure is quoted on the import forms - not the sellers, and admitting it on a public forum is not very clever! If you decide to utilise a carrier that has a poor track record of following up on tax collection then that is Tax Avoidance, which is not illegal, willful incorrect declaration is Tax Evasion, which is illegal.
Also....the package is NOT a gift..it is a commercial transaction.. so that's two incorrect declarations!

Granted, yes.
But this it is DHL and my experience of buying specialist computer components from America [using both DHL and FedEx] has been they haven't bothered inspecthng items / levying VAT etc. when all the paperwork was in order and the value was below [and, in some cases, slightly above] the de minimis values.
Admittedly, though, it is a few years since I have dealt with them so they may have tightened things up. Or maybe I've just been lucky...
I've ordered many times with DHL, i've never payed any tax when declared that the product was 30 dollars value.
OK....you please yourself, but one day........ The Customs people are not stupid, they are aware of the companies that routinely under-declare goods values, and they are targeted with obtaining results...especially as every government in the world is currently under financial duress..they are likely to be tightening up on every source of lost income, and lost VAT revenue is a big biggie.
My advice to you is don't set yourself up as a target...I seriously doubt anyone normally reads the declaration stickers on the packages, especially physically small packages, there must be millions of them pass through every day, but if they do it would be best if it was truthful unless you like employing lawyers to slug it out with your customs services. (you won't win)
I don't know about other countries but in US, there is no duty if the value is below $200 and it is being shipped to the buyer. In our state, we are supposed to pay taxes on items purchased over the internet. They watch Ebay and probably some of the larger public sites. Big box companies always charge tax over the internet. I am pretty sure they are aware of the China purchases but I doubt they have any way of tracking it. I really doubt they are able to track of all of the different companies selling from abroad.
