Just ordered from Amazon

Postby Tyke » January 23rd, 2012, 10:49 pm

After reading the reviews and finding out the gadget show reccomended it im looking forward to seeing if the scroll excel is as good as they say(for the money).
I was going to buy a Asus prime bit at £499 its a lot of money especially all the problems its having.
So Lets see how the scroll performs for general internet browsing e.t.c
Ill no doubt be using this forum a lot as i run into probs e.t.c
look foward to communicating with you all.

Hi & welcome to the forum,

You will be very pleased with your Excel - for the money it is great, yes it has some issues, but compared to tabs that cost way more and ones that are cheaper, it is very very good. Plus there are lots of us on this forum trying to work on making the few Excel bugs disappear and we are getting there.

BTW - Asphalt 6 on it runs great :D

Just watched a 3 part review on utube and im impressed.
So what if it as a few niggles, for the money it seems a real good deal.
After itunes wiped my music off my ipod i decided i would never buy a Apple product again.
Sold my ipod bought a wildfire s and now im a big fan of Android.
Cant wait to get my hands on my Excel.
Cheers Charlie.
BTW what is Asphalt 6, is it a racing game?

Hi and welcome to the Forum
so glad you said "for the money"it seems that many people want to get an ipad killer for £130
I truly think that most of the problems associated with these devices (read all android phones & tabs)can be overcome and are generally an Android problem with the release of ICS and a more generic OS hopfully a lot of the issues will start to dissipate and the platform can start to show what it can do we shall see
WHAT DO WE WANT?

Well its arrived and im very pleased with it although it as locked up once.
Ive a few questions but ill post them in the relevant forum and check out the faq's
It says Android version 2.3.4, baseband v1.6, kernel 2.6.36 and build 97f1-d1-h1-h01-1291-20111128.
Whatever all that means.
Right time to search the forum for tips.
Oh by the way i installed my phone sd card that had appsaver on and it allowed me to install apps onto my scroll that i had saved onto my phone sd card.
But then i guess you all knew you could do that right.
