Guest Bisto321 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 You can't install from AppBrain though can you? P Yeah, thought it was linked to google market? Archos Appslib should be included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 5c00ter Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 The guys on the twitter account AdventVega are happy to take questions etc. especially if there's any teething problems. If you're on Twitter then it's probably a good call to send them your questions/issues. P.S. They're fairly quick at answering questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BiggerH Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 re. apps, does that mean the only way to get them on the tablet is:- 1. from Archos site (selection looks pretty poor), or 2. direct from developers site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Curfish Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 First impressions from me +Screen is very responsive +viewing angles seem ok, but not a amazing -it wont seem to connect to my wireless -the screen is so reflective, its like looking in a mirror even on full brightness. will be useless for outdoor use Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep until Paul gets his - then you will all have market about 15 minutes later. You may be able to DIY it with the info and advice from the viewsonic chaps in the good'ol US of A here -----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827209 Mount, check for ADB recognition in cmd line and try oneclick root. Then follow the above, almost worked for folio but the google framework was not presenting the MAC address correctly and failed at registration. Dexter chap on XDA has modded the 'search and replace' code and market reg now works on the folio. If the viewsonic thread does not work, I am sure paul can achieve the same very easily.

Now you have caught it wot you gonna do wiv it? Shame about the screen, may put lots off. Better to have paid £240 for it than £330 though!
