I recently bought the SGN 10.1 and yes, it's android and clearly a good looking and easy to use machine.
Or is it?
The copying/pasting text is horrendous, so frustrating that I have actually thrown this thing across the room (I have hardly any fuse at all).
Example: copying text in quote form from one website to my own.
Everything you add that should naturally continue underneath goes to the top of the post
Sometimes you get the blue cursors which means basically forget it, you know it will paste above but sometimes you will be lucky and get a black box where selecting paste will paste underneath... but not always.
I tried six times last night with a topic, this repeatedly did everything other than it should behaviour wise, in the end I got the iPad out and it did the post in 2 minutes flat.
Should I write to the manufacturers to tell them how shoddy it is or is there a foolproof way around it, something I am missing?
Second issue (bit of a weird one)
Seems to be a browser/program conflict on one board (phpBB) where a thread contains videos, everytine I access it opens up uTorrent and I have to cancel and exit in order to read the thread. Only on this one website, does not do it on any others. Maybe uninstall and reinstall the program? What about browser, would Firefox or Chrome work better with this machine?
Third and final; if anyone knows how I can add music from my external HD onto this device, that would zlso help a lot!
Thanks in advance for the helpful replies, I need some Ritalin!
