I've never purchased one of these so I am not sure about the build quality but I am seriously considering getting one as a slim client for a HTPC setup.

I've been waiting for a Dual Core 4.1 tablet with 1GB of RAM and HDMI to come out for a while now and this seems like a great price. As a bonus it also has a SD card slot (max 32GB) and a USB host port (USB OTG), making it perfect for a media center.

There is a really Comparison with the Google Nexus 7 on the page for those interested.

I've copied some of the important details here, but there is more information in the link.

  careful this does not have BT. Despite the BT logo.

  From the comparison
  Bluetooth N/A N/A

  Also there seems to be a few inconsistency with the product specification and the comparison. Eg. BT, Display Resolution.

  Also consider you can pickup ethernet-to-USB add-on from ebay for similar setup. add to tab like the upcoming (USD150)fire you get 5MP back cam +BT + a 50% bigger 5000mAh ie. when you unplug.

  This one or Ainol Flame?

    This one would be faster, but Ainol Flame would have better screen resolution and better support from the community.

      and better battery life (44% more capacity)

  this must be one of the first Jellybean OS tablets apart from Google, is it noticeably faster than ICS on RK3066?
  ps does 4.1 expand the app storage space from 1 or 2gb to something bigger?

    JB does not expand the /data partition for these Chinese tablets. They all tend to be configured with 1GB internal storage + 13GB internal flash (internal SD card). It is a ROM configuration issue, not an OS issue. Some custom ROMs re-partition /data, making it 2GB.

    Branded tablets running Honeycomb or above don't have the odd partition approach.

    The comparison table (vs Google N7) has a number of misinformation, making N7 appears inferior. However, N7 is better for sure.
