    Is this better than Optus MyTab for the same price of $99?
    Any WIFI?

    • junkyster on 24/08/2011 - 16:09

      comes with android 2.1, dont think it can be upgraded.

      • elf888 on 24/08/2011 - 16:18

        Yes, it is. But don't think it has any stock….

    • Mikinoz on 24/08/2011 - 16:18

      no its not better , its different. i am thinking about getting one just for testing

      I have both and IMHO I think the telstra one is better. It supports flash player, faster processor, has front camera, built-in kickstand and stylus. The battery life is not great but you can buy 2 new batteries + charger for $11 on ebay. It is very easy to upgrade to 2.2 which automatically unlocks the phone as well.

        ditto to jackofspade. read my guide to update to custom firmware and it works like a charm

    is it unlock? or can i unlock this mobile set?

    • Rakddon on 24/08/2011 - 16:51

      would like to know as well

      Just called Telstra about unlocking and the fees and say said
      "0-6 Months $100, 6-23 months $27.50 and 24 Months+ Free"

    • GreenHornet on 25/08/2011 - 09:26

      Jackofspade said up the top there, that it was fairly easy to upgrade to v2.2 which automatically unlocks that phone as well..

  • johndoe123 on 24/08/2011 - 16:21

    i will only buy if it easily or cheaply unlock

    • tfb on 24/08/2011 - 16:55

      It can be unlocked by manually upgrading to the Norwegian 2.2 Froyo. It will also run a hell of a lot better on 2.2

      • johndoe123 on 24/08/2011 - 17:20

        owh..thanks tfb

    Appalling reviews - http://www.cnet.com.au/telstra-t-touch-tab-339306869.htm

    I think that the Optus MyTab is likely a better option.

    • [Deactivated] on 24/08/2011 - 17:38

      review is based on stock experience. I think after updating it to custom firmware. it is way faster than mytab and it supports flash too. as jackofspade said dont forget to get 2 extra batteries from ebay.

    Is this locked? lol

    Damn its ugly! I'd buy it for $20.

    Feel like got stabbed on my heart every time I see a tablet "deal" after I missed the HP Touchpad :(

      I'm with you on that, brah - when we bought our myTab I told The Lovely that within a year I would be able to get a $100 10-incher to read/surf/listen to audiobooks on the dunny… and it was right there, but it took me too long to get by bum into gear and get to Hardly Normal. By the time I got there the line was like the queue for Rick Astley tickets back in the day.

      Patience, yo… our day will come.

    • spliniter on 24/08/2011 - 18:40

      same :(

  • x3n9 on 24/08/2011 - 16:39

  • DrKazanovaKK on 24/08/2011 - 16:47

    Yeah but it ain't no $98 HP TouchPad!

    Some facts:

    • It can be upgraded to android 2.2 (official)
    • Can be permanently unlocked by installing a custom ROM (I forgot the name). Custom ROMs also improve the sensitivity of the screen and the battery life.
    • Can play flash
    • Terrible battery
    • Damn ugly & heavy

    Are you sure they're in stock? This "promotion" has been there for 2 months, and it's already been discounted nationwide for more than 4 weeks

  • Augh on 24/08/2011 - 17:19

    Can anyone confirm if Skype Video will work with the upgraded ROM (2.2)

    • [Deactivated] on 24/08/2011 - 17:36

      no Skype video calling does not work so as gtalk video calls. try other messenger from market fring or something

  • iceborg on 24/08/2011 - 17:48

    This isn't a decent tablet and Telstra are just selling them off cheap to people who missed out on the HP deal / Optus deal which were at similar prices.

    Wait for the honeycomb (v3.10 ones to come down once the ice cream (v4.0) come out in a few months.

    what is the point of this post? It has been on OW website for a long time at that price and there is NO stock everywhere. I'll neg this.

  • samehada on 24/08/2011 - 20:11

    I couldn't find any store in VIC that still has this even a display model. Anyone can point to me at least 1 OW that still has stock?

    • savara on 25/08/2011 - 11:37

      at least you can take it to HN and ask them to price match as I did :-)
