But as I've said, currently I have an old 8gb card installed as the External SD card, and the tab sees it, allows me to read and access files on it, but will not play ball when it comes to apps. Apps will only reside on the Internal SD card.
No I foolishly thought, I could add 8gb (or more) using the external card and get. total of 16gb usable to the tab, ie get a 16gb tablet in the same way as an iPad is 16gb. Sill mistake maybe, but SO say in the sales literature it is 8gb and EXPANDABLE to 32gb using external SD cards. This in my opinion is complete mis advertising.
Of course if someone can please tell me it can be done and how to it I woukd be grateful.
The buying a 32gb card would make so much sense to me.
I certainly agree with you about the misleading wording but S.O. are not the only ones guilty of this. If you scan Amazon you will see they are advertising tablets with 1.6 Gig processors - but the truth is the Chinese manufacturers have started adding their CPU speed 1.2 to their GPU speed .4 and calling their tablets 1.6Ghz and Amazon are just coppying their specs. Another example is on Ebuyer, they are advertising the Scroll Excel ICS as having 2 cameras and it only has 1.
Regarding the external memory card useage I thought exactly the same as you with my Excel.
I believe it can be done but I have no idea how. I don't think it is a simple solution problem though, as Suggsy89 said about a request for bluetooth support: " a liitle bit like taking the piston out of an engine and putting it back whilst its running. Still we can live in hopes
