Always Innovating Touchbook to Support Android and Ubuntu and More.

Sadly, you should not waste your time [checking it out] – I was really enthusiastic and eagerly awaited my TB but it has proven to be, to put it bluntly, a sham. It’s more than useless – there’s no browser that supports such common reqs as gmail – youtube videos don’t play, there’s no IMAP client supplied, the UI is primitive at best. This almost a year after all of those enticing videos and pre-order pages on their website. They had a chance but could not deliver and now the market has caught up to them.

They’ve had a series of embarrassments – from their many missed and retroactively adjusted ship dates, to a keyboard that belongs back in the 1990s, to their releasing a product that tipped over when opened to a usable viewing angle. Then there’s the “system update” feature that very few [by the forum and my own experience], if anyone, could ever get to work as advertised.

Sorry guys, I really tried to believe that you could deliver something but I’ve got this piece of junk that cost me $400+ and I’ve spent perhaps 30 hours of my valuable time trying to make useful and like. Time to move along, nothing to see here.

yes, I was really hopeful that the Android release would be useful – but it appears to be there just as a proof of concept – it boots and… well it boots =)

I’ve been unable to get the Settings to pick up a network connection, applications don’t launch. The “Beta” label is being really kind.

Re: Youtube – The Chromium installation supplied freezes constantly and doesn’t play videos either.

Lastly – I know it’s not a netbook – but what’s a Tablet for? Can’t watch Videos, read email or reliably surf the web on this one?
