i'm so interested in this thing, the only problem is that i can't find any detailed tutorials on how to flash to honeycomb.  is this the way:

1) root it using z4root
2) flash moddedstock v2?
3) boot into cwm and flash vegacomb rom?

sorry bro, I haven't got this tablet yet, I don't have any clue yet on how to root this tablet notworthy.gif

Where the ViewSonic completely trounces the low-cost competition, however, is with its battery life. In an idle state, connected to a Wi-Fi router and with the screen on medium brightness, it lasted 8hrs 34mins before running out of juice – more than double the life of the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

if the reviewer is not biased, there is no reason to get a more expensive tablet as GalaxyTab or iPad!

Just bought my Viewsonic Viewpad 10s WIFI + 3G Pretty decent except the screen resolution could be better. Yeah jwyong001 flashed mine to honeycomb. Cool dude if u need to root and flash rom he is the guy you wanna talk to :-)
I'm not complaining too coz the price is really cheap. Don't compare to those high end ones. I guess the high end ones will hv good resolution. I can live with mine considering the price I paid for.

I got myself a digi smartplan and the 3g works out fine.

Overall, a decent tablet and only drawback is the screen resolution and lack of accessories or should I say none at the moment that is made for Viewpad 10s.

How is the battery life for this tablet?

Yeah RM699 but reason being this price is because they took out the 16GB microsd card. If u add the sdhc is gonna be ard RM780 assuming the 16GB is abt RM80. Btw I wanna sell my 16gb and upgrade to 32gb. If anyone buying fr u know where and want a 16gb, I sell for RM60 :-) so u can save more.

Battery is decent 6-8hrs shd be alright. I'm so used to keep charging my htc phone that this tablet the same I charge whenever I get the chance so hv not really tested the batt yet.

The battery life is superb! How about browsing experience, does it support flash?

Honestly im used to charging all the time so I hv not really tested the battery life. So sorry

Its ok. So far this tablet problem is the screen rite? I still haven't decided to get this tablet or Galaxy W. My nokia x6 still serves me well, at least true for phone/sms functionality. My purpose on getting this tablet is for email/social/web browsing and reading pdf ebooks. Do u recommend to do so? Is the screen problem acceptable for reading or browsing?

haa patdidi, u go buy and try it smooth or not~~
Btw, my concern still cant get a clear answer
yeap~
after root, App2sd can move the application
but some of them cant~
tat will make the internal storage getting lesser and lesser like my galaxy ace~
*
I have contacted Directd for the detail, it cost another rm100 to upgrade honeycomb/vegacomb. Besides rooting will void the warranty. I'm asking my brother to come and check the tablet first since I'm too far away. If everything went smooth, I'll have this tablet as soon as next week, otherwise it will be end of this month

rooting is not hard.. installing the driver for viewpad in ur computer is tougher. u need to get the usb cable separately as it is not included in the set

however charging 100 for rooting is insane

sorry, what I mean is honeycomb upgrade. not just rooting. notworthy.gif

viewcomb's thread in XDA was closed therefore no more support for it, u should put vegacomb in the first page, it's still going on.  fyi viewcomb actually came from vegacomb with some modifications.

and here's the youtube link for anyone who wants to do the update themselves:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPl0r7FIFnE

should also put in FP
*
done,
but XDA only support Viewsonic G Tablet and Viewpad 7 rite? I did not find support page for viewpad 10s.
Besides, the link that I posted in FP have the latest ViewComb, Build 6.3 and released on 11-26-2011.

hi.

originally wanted to buy huawei mediapad but too expensive for her age (3 years old). she still dont know how to be more responsible to her toys. so i'm thinking of buying this for her instead.

is this tablet stable enough to use? how about the screen? i read that it is too sensitive. will upgrading to honeycomb helps with the screen/perfomance/stability?

if this tablet good enough to play basic games and play downloaded youtube videos (flv and avi) that is ok already. i've tried a couple of cheap tablets but all was very unstable.

cheers

according to certain review, sometime it will crash when opening gallery. I'm not sure if honeycomb will settle this problem, but looking for the price with tegra 2 inside, its a perfect choice. I'm sure youtube video can play very well in this tablet. As long as connection is fast enough and stable.
