First Android Tablet PC - WePad

Hello,
the german company Neofonie is selling the first Android Tablet Computer very soon.
It's called WePad and kinda reminds me of the iPad.
But wait, the WePad is much better!

Not sure where to post this. Move if needed

According to Heise (http://www.heise.de/mobil/meldung/Tablet-Computer-mit-Infrastruktur-fuer-Verlage-961008.html - german!) it's not an Android tablet, but can run android apps via a wrapper.

I'd rather wait for ICD's Nvidia Tegra2 based Vega tablet...

I'll have a look at it, thanks for the link

it's so Beautiful!~

There is also this, Enso Zenpad, Its a 5" resistive touch, android 1.6, samsung 667mhz, 256mb ram, 1gb inbuilt, up to 32gb microSD (8gb Included)..
Looks like a nice little device, and its only $150! (£102)

Uhh, but we're talking about Tablet PC's. </sarcasm>

Notion Ink Adam, all the way. Noone will be able to beat this one when it comes to the display...

looks small (next to the pics of WePad and T-Mobile Vega / Tegra)

http://www.technoholik.com/news/exclusive-a-sneak-peek-at-the-notion-ink-adam-tablet-specs-pics/
And the display really rocks... I have an OLPC, which has a similiar display. I wish I could get that screen for my thinkpad.

Just gonna get this question out of the way...possible to upgrade hard drive?

So, I find myself running out of room for apps...blah blah blah. Can we buy the exact same hard drive used in the nexus 7 but a bigger capacity? then install it...then reinstall the entire OS? seems possible right? or not?
I have no idea I just figured I would ask

To start, the Nexus 7 does not have a hard drive. Just a surface mount SD chip, which is not replaceable.

actually it is technically replaceable but you would have to replace a good 80% of the device with it, so there is almost no point. you might as well buy a 16 Gb if you have an 8 Gb now, and sell the old one

Good question / good answer.
Workaround I use is case that can hold my tiny USB. My device is basically a 32 gig unit now.

Thanks for the answers guys...after doing a little digging, I realized that this isn't really a realistic procedure to do...I just figured I'll update you on what I found out.
The 8GB Nexus 7 uses the Kingston KE44B-26BN/8GB memory chip, while the 16GB Nexus 7 uses the Kingston KE4BT4B6A memory chip. Kingston make chips of the same 32nm types that come in 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB capacities. The dimensions of the 4GB-16GB chips are 12 x 16 x 1.2. While the 32GB chips are 14 x 18 x 1.4. So it appears that the 32GB chips would be much too big to fit anyway.
However, the 16GB chips only cost around $27...but no place has them in stock. I posted this on ifixit and will report back if they say anything.

Will Chuwi HI13 2IN1 Tablet PC Kill Surface Book For A Better Choice?

Right now i believe most users and media have been attracted by CES in Las Vegas, 2017, because i am also a fan of CES, and fond of unknown electronics. Yesterday, i have read some tech sites to know Chuwi will attend CES to release and show Chuwi HI13, which is the new year flagship, better and powerful than Chuwi HI12, but previously, i have guess this new tablet pc should call Chuwi HI14 according to their naming practice. It proves I was wrong. You can check this thread that i created before about Chuwi new tablet, i am also doubtful it should be Chuwi Lapbook 14.1 Notebook, so i changed the title from Chuwi HI14 to Chuwi Lapbook 14.1. Please forgive me for my wrong judge. Anyway, i have seen the Chuwi HI13 real photos before and know the main specs you may be interested. Check details as follow.

Here are some detailed specs:
1. 13.5 inch 3000 x 2000 resolution 3:2 ratio screen.
2. Intel Apollo Lake Celeron N3450 CPU + Gen9 Graphics 500 GPU.
3. Windows 10 Home operating system.
4. 4 GB DDR3L RAM + 64 GB eMMC ROM.
5. Detachable keyboard + Stylus pen support.
6. 2.4Ghz/5Ghz Dual band Wi-Fi + Type-C Port.
But my point is that in terms of design, it looks like Surface Book so much, do you detect that?
So i think Chuwi HI13 can replace Surface book in the design and price, how about you? I like to choose competitive and affordable electronics.

I had just bought this. I am wondering how I did. Sometimes I make good decisions, sometimes I miss key things. This "might" be the same as the Xtrons unit, I am not sure.
Any thoughts?
Any requests when it comes?
.

Im looking for minimalist design without buttons.
Others like Atoto have good performance but they look horrible.
Please review when you receive it

I bought a mekede unit from mekede official store on aliexpress
It was described as Android 8.1
It's not, it's actually android 6.0
They have not replied to my messages and unfortunately I didn't figure this out until after the buyer protection time limit had ended.

Thanks for the reply. It came two or three days ago. Maybe even four. I haven't really planned on firing it up and testing it out yet. Probably because I have not wanted to cut any wires, or make any commitments until I am sure of how I want to use it. My dash is a real pain to open. The bezel is four or five feet long. I should probably hook it up and install it, just to try it out. The last Android I bought three years ago was suppose to be Android 6.0 or what ever the latest was. I still have the sales receipt. It was loaded with Android 4.4.2.
Mekede either assembles these or just purchases them directly from somewhere else. They wanted extra time before shipping it because a supplier had not shipped "something". I was thinking they had just sold unbranded Xtrons units, or vice versa. I already left feedback... just like you did. Perhaps I should try it. Which I am not sure how to do off a desktop power supply without cutting any wires. I might actually just throw away the whole Android part and hook the face plate up to a Windows/Linux computer instead. This way I can choose my own hardware. I actually tried to cancel this order because there was a much higher resolution screen available for half the price. With some minor installation work, it would have filled the two din dash hole perfectly. At least for my truck.
