Guest WelshPhil Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hi guys thanks to the wealth of knowledge and positive feedback given on the Vega on this site, I went and ordered one from Dixons online on Friday, well it arrived today, looks and feels really good. Unfortunately the battery appears to be completely dead so will have to let it charge awhile before getting my greedy little paws on it. So thanks in advance for helping me decide which tablet to get. I've mainly bought it because my wife has taken a fancy to my kindle, keeps complaining about the battery life on her laptop, so all in all this tablet for under £200 seemed to tick all the boxes.

And let me know what software you add, and how you get on with that. Good luck! Well I've already download the MCR8 pack yesterday, unzipped and ready to go soon as I get home. Will install the Kindle app, and many of the apps I use on my Iphone4 as the wife seems to like them too...lol Edited April 5, 2011 by WelshPhil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest leebarr26 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I went to the track order page on the website and noticed this message "Please Note: We are currently experiencing problems with our email confirmation system. If you placed an order with us and have not received a confirmation email, do not worry, your order has been processed in the usual way. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. We are working hard to rectify this issue as soon as possible." so I am assuming that my order is beign processed as normal. I have emailed them tho asking if they could update me on the status of my order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing since, I even checked my account on the Dixon's site and it gave no indication that delivery was on its way. Then at lunch time a nice DHL lady turns up at work with my parcel.

Guest beegee1962 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Ok so just got another email, saying they are just preparing my order for delivery, and i should receive an email with a tracking number. What are you guys thinking about just PMing each other instead of filling up an useless thread with personal information exchange? No offense, but your delivery problems are not really important for other forum users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if skyplayer will work on the advent vega. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mark_L Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 (edited) your delivery problems are not really important for other forum users. There could well be other people reading these forums that have only just ordered thier own Vega. In which case information about other peoples delivery experiences both good and bad will be helpfull/re-assuring to them.
