This new Gizmodo interface is easily the worst I've seen.

Please fire your web designer, Gizmodo.
Android is also replete with some fine console emulators.
Dell did no one any favors here.

Do your homework on the Chinese Android tablets and you will find one for a better price that is pretty much the same damn thing.

I bought a Haipad M701-R AGAINST Sir Ashens's advice, and have a pretty damn cool little device here for well under 200 dollars, albeit without 3G capability.
I had to tinker with it a little but it's still a better piece than it is given credit for.

So way to cheap out, Dell.
Find a better knockoff to re-brand next time.
Paint it to look like an old VW wheel trim ring sitting on a can of Quaker Oats.

-sall i got.
I have a version that is an 8-ball.

I like it.
Smart ass.

WHEN the zombie apocalypse happens you'll be scrambling for ammo and a clear headshot, just like the rest of us.

Hard to want one when a cheap Android tablet gets better mileage.

My Haipad M701-R has a remote and HDMI out, and rocks the online media like a champ.
(Thank you to Stuart Ashens for the head's up, even though it wasn't meant to be!)

-and yeah I logged on and posted a couple of times. Don't get all weird.

Coming back and seeing a story like this on Gizmodo is like trying a YooHoo drink again after you've forgotten why you avoid it now.

Thanks for the reminder.

See you after I forget the bad taste again.
