new scroll 7" 2.3 android coming soon

Another response from SO after I pointed out that Flash and the Market are pretty standard on competing products. I would not buy this current capacitive tablet but wait until they make improvements:

Good morning,

These issues have been raised with our product development team who are looking into this for our next tablet PC.

Thanks for supporting Storage Options

Hi,

I have to say I’m a bit disappointed, especially since I thought your first tablet product was very good for an initial tablet. Now that technology has moved on a bit I am looking for a capacitive tablet and I thought your new one looked promising but I’m not sure that i can proceed without Flash or the Market.

There are a lot of competing tablets around now at around the same price point that support both the Android Market and Flash and have larger amounts of inbuilt memory (below are 2 good examples from Amazon).

How come Storage Options tablets do not support those bits? As they seem to be pretty key to a lot of peoples requirements, and in particular to posters on http://scrolltabletforum.co.uk.

I would be perfectly happy to support your company further and buy another tablet from you if your tablets included those extra bits.

Well, I just ordered one for collection from my local Maplins tomorrow, so I'll give it a whirl in-store before parting with any reddies!

Not having Android market isnt a dealbreaker (lots of other ways to get your adks) but no flash support is a bit of a cheeser, to say the least.

Storage Options might just have lost a sale and some entrepreneur on Amazon might have gained one.

What on earth does flash do that requires so much processing power? We used to play Half Life with less than that

Well said.
Now.. Half Life on Android anyone ?
