Nice little toy...posting this with tablet now. Seems to work well.
One of my plans is to get a Chinese Android smartphone to use as a handheld computer. I like the five-inch phablet form-factor.
Rich, I may have to try out one of these tabs that you got. Toys...m...must h...have more toys!!! |

| I've decided the one thing that I hate most about Android is that it doesn't directly support printing from within the application...
I DON'T WANT TO USE GOOGLE CLOUD PRINTING! |

| Some new printers have apps in the store that allow routing to the printer from droid, ios etc. Private cloud stuff. I.e. Samsung Mobile print |

| Yeah, just what I want to do...go out and spend money on a new printer to compensate for a piss-poor operating system. |

I'm still "dying" to try out a 10.1 inch Android 4.x netbook...and I'm still too paranoid that it will lose its OS install and become an instant paperweight. |

| That's what I like about 4.1, or at least my version of it on my little tablet...part of the OS is a full factory restore from a built in image file...or something similar.
Plus I made sure that when I ordered it that I got a copy of the factory image file...and they did send it to me. So unless I have some unusual catastrophic hardware failure, I'm good to go. |

That's GREAT that they sent you the image file...I should ask the netbook sellers if they can provide this...but I suspect they are just sellers and not at the factory. |

| Why would you want to print from a tablet? Yeah, I can see the convenience when home, but really? that's what you have a problem with? It's a freaking tablet! When would you actually need to print something when mobile? |
