well, i guess android just aint for me,

im not going to call the tablet , it is good solid quality but is noway worth what i paid.

it lacked in a couple of ways, one being the flash not being stable and froze the tablet and i had to switch off the phone this happened a few times.

the other was lack of streaming online which i was quite dissapointed with, but guess the phone wasnt up to it

i loved the fact when the flash was ok it played demo fruit machines on skyvegas! i loved that loads of them too, i will miss that lol

maybe if the price drops some more i will get another

i did notice at cpw they now have 32gb version at the same price as i paid for the 16gb
 
for the browser put in Dolphin HD...most important app for me.

Stock browser sucked and almost made me return it...dolphin brought it back



ooonoooo, i wish i knew to try that before i returned it,

though i think ill wait for them to be reduced some more and possibly get another, i did like it but couldnt justify the price, for me personally it was just too much, for other people it may be worth it!

do you know or anyone know if the dell streak is capable of the 10.1 flash like the samsung tab? i know theres a 2.2 android update for it and wonder if with this it can do it?

Re: the Dell Streak.

I still have the one I bought before the Galaxy Tab. I still love it and use it too. It does have an update now to 2.2 so flash content is enabled.

It is smaller than the Tab and is a bit more fragile. The screen will shatter if you aren't careful with it. Also, the back cover tends to come off a lot, so you will need a tight case for it.

Other than that, I really like that tablet a lot. I wish I didn't so I could sell it and make some $$$. :rolleyes:

Oh, and mines unlocked, rooted, and RED. :D

Is Dolphin better then Opera?
Why?
I find Dolphin HD is an awesome web experience compared to the stock web browser. Dolphin has tons of addons on the android market, it also even has Gestures, where you Swipe;reference to the Swipe feature on MT4, the screen and it will confirm an action such as Back, Forward. It also has options to view the web in Android experience, iOS experience or your traditional desktop. One feature that sold me on this browser was the Bookmarks to SD addon, Yes thats right you have the option to store all your favorites right on your SD card.

aww, thanks for that info, looking for a case now, i really am liking the streak. think its because it reminds me somewhat of the galaxy tab, and missed that yesterday! (got the streak today) my streak hasnt got the update yet but am looking forward to it when it does, it will be very simalar to the tab then :) xx

I also returned my tab. It froze on websites and at times bogged down. No way worth the money that I paid for it. I picked up a streak and so far love it

i love the streak too! i think its the its a happy medium between the galaxy tab and a senseable sized phone you can take out,

yeah, i still get 'oh man what that, a brick? hahah' .. erm ,sorry i forgot to laugh, your pea sized brain wont be able to cope with what it can do..

Tt has a few bad mouthed views, but most people do anything further than ringtones or internet email, they should just stick with a nokia classic

anyway ,the streak will be fantastic when i get the 2.2 update.
seriously one of the best phones on the market then

again as i say , i did like the tab its great but i think the 2.2 android made it that and the streak will just be a smaller version and more portable

as for sound its not bad :)
