Yup, and we use completely fooked if we don't have the part in boot stock.

Our flow chart shows that the next step for us is "I'll get someone from sales to call you"

By the way, my phone is behaving perfectly today.

Apart from the fact that I can't get any of the Google services on it including Market.

Which is a bit of a bummer.


LATE EDIT : hold the front page, phony Google account gets me in

Now : SD card not recognised

And as all good field service engineers will tell you that's where the feckin problems start.

it takes an engineer 3 weeks to complete a tender, and a halfwhit from sales to miss the OJEU deadline by 3 minutes!

I bet them in sales can probably spell half-wit correctly mind?

Another question ...

Could do with a tablet PC for the house, it has to boot up immediately (thats the big complaint with the ancient PC that serves the house now) and will be used for casual browsing/doing the banking etc using the house wi-fi, doesn't need 3/4G, will probably be used for watching on demand TV too and then various downloadable "angry birds" type games.

A 7" screen is fine, HD not absolutely necessary but I'm looking at either sub £100 or may go to £150 if the features make it worthwhile.

Someone at our office showed me their Blackberry Playbook the other day which is currently on a price-slash, or I've been looking at a Kindle Fire and a couple of sub £100 unknown brand android devices.

Any thoughts on the BB or a specific alternative ?

Any company that has that on a flow chart deserves all the misfortune it gets

From what i've seen of it so far it's really good and has all the feature you mentioned. http://www.amazon.co.uk/AINOL-NOVO7-ELF ... B0087DA8YK

Playbook is a great machine let down by a hopeless OS, Samsung Galaxy 7" are a good price as is the Google Nexus both at the higher end of your price list. The Kindle Fire is a decent machine too, a little too tied to Amazon for my liking though.

Ainol do some great machines at the cheaper end but buy from a UK based seller.
