this tablet is really tempting, do you know if they'll release android 2.2 for it?? because watching shows in flash is important for me, and i believe 2.2 is the firmware that allows flash capabilities in the browser??if this tablet can play flash flawlessly i'd definately consider buying it.

@zoolanderhansel No Flash at the moment, but you can watch (UK-based) TV shows using TVcatchup and BBC iPlayer with the MyPlayer app. :-)

Hello m8 nice vid - yeah if you could show the browser speed and if it works with any websites needing flash - i know that its running 1.6 and this doesn't support flash but it would be sold for me completly if it can load videos such as bbc iplayer, 4 on demand etc. p.s you were in hatfield - not attending the uni of herts? or were you staying in the travel lodge near dominos pizza?

[dajbelshaw]

@anoush I'm staying at a hotel near the University of Herts. as there's a conference on. You can watch iPlayer through the MyPlaer app and 4od is through YouTube (accessible) anyway!

It realy would be helpful if you could see if it has copy/paste and some kind of note pad. I'm a minister and this would be grate to preach from

[dajbelshaw]

@123gateway321 Yep, there's copy/paste and lots and lots of notepad apps in the Android Marketplace! :-)

let see how the gameplay is and the musicplayer

[dajbelshaw]

@123gateway321 Yes, there's some work going on in terms of doing this (before Dell provide an over-the-air update) at the MoDaCo forum for the Dell Streak. :-)

@TS7019 I'm using Swype as a keyboard for quicker text input. :-)

[dajbelshaw]

@Skuff Well it's not on the list of compatible devices when you go to purchase it...
