Guest hecatae Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Featuring a 7" 1024x600 screen, 1.2GHz dual core process processor and 1GB RAM for 40% faster performance than the original Kindle Fire... the device is a great little tablet - especially at under £100! Sadly it's only available in store or by phoning an 0870 number! Are you picking one up? Let us know! :) [Via: CarphoneWarehouse] Click here to view the item Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TangerineTractor Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 I went in a couple of weeks ago and was about to buy one, when I saw one of their cheaper tablets reduced to £60 - very similar spec, 8gb ram, ICS... and it was only for the wife, so I bought one, and it came up at £49 on the till, so an absolute steal really. Works absolutely fine, pre-rooted, no issues. For the money, a bargain. (And a protective sleeve is 99p on ebay, so under £50 for the lot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TangerineTractor Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 do you have the cortex a8 cpu with 512mb ram version, or the a10 cpu with 1gb ram? Dunno. I just opened it up, cleared down all teh crap off it, installed a decent launcher and set up facebook, email and solitaire for the wife. 3 million brownie points. I'll have a look tonight.

I always have my phone with me, so just wifi tether when needed. Why bother with another contract or even prepay sim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
