Is the a capacitive touch screen? How does the screen size compare to the iPad?
- bpd1069 15y agocapacitive | multitouch | IPS Display | 178degree viewing angle | 7inch diag screen | 1024x600 screen | Stock: 169 ppi / CM7: 161 ppi | Highly recommend CM7 running android 2.3.4
- 2mur 15y agoYeah it's an awesome little device. I love mine (CM7, market, etc).
- jff 15y agoYep, capacitive touch screen. Personally, I think the screen size is ideal... it's easier to hold than an iPad. It's not especially powerful, but it's nice for web browsing and playing Angry Birds :) We bought a bunch at work and installed Cyanogenmod for one of our projects. It's the right size, and waaaay cheaper than an iPad. For $250, I'd recommend it for a general purpose (wifi-only) Android tablet. SSH is nice on it too.
- eropple 15y agoI own both an NC and an iPad, and I'd disagree with the assertion that it's easier to hold. Even though it's glass, the flat surface coupled with the mostly-flat back of the iPad makes it a lot easier for me to grip. Even though it's Android, the price is certainly right for an entry-level tablet.
- rwmj 15y agoI think it's a bit bogus to compare it to the iPad. It's slower and smaller. But I accept that because it was so much cheaper - cheap enough that I could have got 2 or 3 of these for the same price as an iPad2. I use mine to read recipes when I'm in the kitchen, and for single-purpose tasks like planning journeys using the Google Maps app. For these limited things, it's absolutely excellent.
