Odd I must say! Is this when your streaming or playing directly from storage? Or both?

May it rest in pieces.

I just picked up an Android tablet myself. It's a Polaroid 701c that runs Gingerbread at 1 GHz, with 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB internal storage, and expandable with up to 32 GB via Micro SDHC.
At $99, I couldn't pass it up.

The latest version (701i) runs Ice Cream Sandwich, but on the same hardware as the 701c.
As a result, its a tad sluggish. I may get one nonetheless, as I'm working on a project to hack its ROM, and need it as a 'guinea pig'.

Is there anyone else here fooling around with them, or something similar?

My dell account manager brought one of their androids for me to try, I handed it back within 3 minutes. I'm very happy with the iPad, despite being the kind of person who should hate it.

Hello!

My brother wanted to buy my Mom an iPad (which she needs like a hole in the head; she has no clue about how one works, despite it being as easy to use as it is). Telling him that I could buy 5 of these for the cost of an iPad, and that even though the iPad IS better, it's not 5 times so, shut him up quickly.

I know exactly what you mean. I agree. I am a bit nervous to say this for fear of inciting irritation but I really love windows phone.
My ideal tablet would be an iPad with capacitive buttons at the bottom running the Windows Phone OS. :oops:
