Welcome to the site, perhaps a post follow up to your previous posts under new member introductions WAS the correct place, however who cares, you have joined the madhouse and become a "Scroller", troll through the various threads and discussions, recommended apps etc. Welcome aboard !

Up to now I am not at all happy with mine. I cannot install any apps or games for it, as it is not recognized.
It would be quicker to send a letter by post than use the internet it is that slow. It has locked up or restarted far to many times to be healthy.
I don't know, maybe mine is very sick and needs to be returned or are they all like this?

Ginny: Not normally, no. What are you comparing it to? I have a dual quad core pc thats a damn sight faster than the scroll but i cant compare it to that :lol:

The non-downloading market problem is well known. There is a fix for it in viewtopic.php?f=27&t=615&hilit=market+fix

There are other ways to get the market apps, you can use other app sites to download them, sometimes the siter will refer you to the market and it'll work.

In reality, mine is fast enough to do what I want on it (basic browsing, email, games etc) If you feel its faulty return it for a replacement or call SO support for advice.

HTH

Anyone who has an 8" scroll, can you check to see how much room there is for installing Apps as this has 8GB internal flash as opposed to the 2GB the 7" has

Market is hit and miss! But Browsing ETC is spot on
