Beware as they say its in stock but its not. I ordered on the 11th from their deal http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/79601 and it still hasn't been posted. So if you dont like waiting then skip ordering from them. I will in future as first impressions count.

I'd make sure they have a solid returns policy or you might be stuck with dead pixels, colour cast, blotches, uneven backlight, backlight bleed, or any combination of those lol.

"Some speakers of vernacular English varieties, particularly in isolated or mountainous regions of the southern United States, use phrases such as of a night or of an evening in place of Standard English at night or in the evening"

"RK3066
These high performance mobile processor is a Dual Core Cortex A9"
Even the website selling the tablet describes it as a dual core 1.6Ghz unit.

My Cube U30Gt has excellent battery life. Enough to rival the Tegra2 Lenovo Thinkpad tab.
This tab is a slight improvement of the Cube U30GT along with a bigger battery, so this will last even longer. The concern though is the build quality, which can vary between tablets…. some people have Cube U30GT's with defective touchscreens and poor wifi.
alphonso89 on 19/09/2012 - 19:10 ¶looking at the warranty.
1-Year Manufacturer's Warranty: this warranty is offered directly by the manufacturer. Should the item become defective within the manufacturer's warranty period (physical damages and damages caused by incorrect usage excluded), customers may send the unit back to our Hong Kong office. We will help forwarding the item to the manufacturer for repair, and will look after the progress. The customer will need to cover shipping fees both ways.now that sucks.
from auspost, its 31.50 1 way registered post to HK so that would be 63 dollars return?with signature that would be 51.50 1 way to HK. 103 for return. seriously?

I'd have to agree that this would be a show stopper of a policy for me.

Doesn't seem like a bargain to me. I mean I'm an Android fan but I've also used an iPad and for 35% more you can have an iPad 3;
- its the REAL THING
- its a brand name
- it exists right now
- its has great battery life
- you can buy it at your local store
- build quality is good
- no warranty hassles
- there are apps that can take advantage of the hi res
Doesn't appeal to me when all your really getting from this deal is the extra res, OH and and 3.8% discount….
