I'd say the worst strikes against this tablet is the resistive touchscreen,
and OS 2.1 (not LiveCode compatible).  I don't know if it could update to
2.2 or not.  I learned the hard way that a resistive screen will increases
ones frustration level immensely.  After two cheap tablets, I am happy with
my Viewsonic gTablet for $269.  Still cheaper than most, but it is fast and
versatile, running a dual-core Tegra2.  I can install 2.2, 2.3, and 3.0 on
it for testing LC apps.  And having smooth Netlix playback is my favorite
bonus.
