Why does it only browse the web? How hard can it be to throw a desktop on there? You make all that hardware and then cripple it with limited software? Whateva.

You make all that hardware and then cripple it with limited software? Whateva. I would pay $499 if it had bluetooth and could run a normal OS.
Also, these Fusion Garage guys need to hire a marketing/PR firm STAT. Fingerprint-marred green screen and scary looking nerd glowering at the camera is bad for business.
- netcan 17y agoYou can already get a tablet that does that. I never understand these kinds of comments. "I wouldn't buy that. Why didn't they make it into a completely different kind of product." It's like looking at a motorbike & saying "They should have given it four wheels & aircon."
- forensic 17y agoI guess I just don't understand wtf the point of this thing is when the Archos 9 is on sale for $499
- netcan 17y agoI'm not saying this is a good product. I'm not sure it is. That is besides the point. I think the point is that it is a different approach to what the Archos 9, a Windows tablet. This is a browser in a box. Maybe browser in a box isn't a good idea. Maybe it will bomb. There are two main features/bugs to this: Browser in a box & tablet. Saying "why does it only browse the web?' is like saying 'Why doesn't it have a keyboard.'
- forensic 17y agoNot having a keyboard is a good idea. The keyboard is a waste of space. It should just have bluetooth so you can hook up a keyboard if you want. They have all this hardware... it wouldn't be hard to turn it into something good. That's why I said what I said. Because all they need is an OS and bluetooth and IMO it would be worth the price they set.
- netcan 17y agoSure. You want a Windows/Mac/Linux tablet, not what this thing is. Those are also available.
