Well, my little tablet has arrived. I've been playing around with it for about a week and a half now, 'm still trying to get a handle on it. Apart from a few small niggles I am enjoying it so far.
I've left the protective plastic cover that is put on the screen during packaging to save my screen from damage from either my fingers/nails or the stylus before I get an actual screen protector. My case with built in keyboard is supposed to come with a free screen protector so I should have that early in the next week. I should've gotten it at the beginning of this past week but it took Royal Mail a week from posting date to inform me that the supplier had failed to put sufficient postage on the package and another 24 hours after making up the card stating how much I'll need to pay to get my item through my letterbox to inform me of this. I paid on lunchtime Thursday online and was told my package would be delivered within 2 to 3 working days. So Tuesday at the latest, annoying as it's sitting in the local depo less than 10 minutes from my home and they should've been informed I had paid the under postage (plus the £1 admin fee) within a few minutes of them receiving payment for the fee.
Unfortunately the blogging based apps for use with my journals and blogs aren't compatible with my generic budget brand of tablet according to the google marketplace which is a bit disappoiinting but I guess I'll just have to update by web browser when using my tablet. In fact this is an error with Goggle Marketplace when registering my device, I have since downloaded a few apps that their android marketplace state as incompatible elsewhere with no problems with either install or using. Unfortunately none of these other marketplaces have the blogging apps available so I can't get them that way.
But apart from the mislabelling of my device and Google Marketplace stopping me from downloading and trying apps they decide should be incompatible I'm enjoying testing out the Android system although I've only used my tablet to browse online and test out a few apps.
