FB is mainly JavaScript based I think? Websites that run too much Flash and JavaScript will not work well...

I think the video you can only play is the type that you can play after you've formatted your laptop and didn't install any codec~

Maybe need to Jailbreak so can install   Codec Pack?  hmm.gif

Try using touch.facebook.com instead. Most of these pop up or drop down menus don't work well with touch screens.

For FACEBOOK lover

no other browser others than china UC browser while for videos(rmvb) PPS, PPTV, xunleikankan-quite lag for now but at least it play (SEARCH-SETTING-REGION-REGION-CHINA)
or u can try switch to uk,us or others , to get variety of software that available for certain country

i dont like use RT to browsing, very slow la, now having exam, i use build in Reader only , and sick , no time to browse at all

for study,download wordbook(offline dictionary) which is quite handy

Are the apps you mentioned free?

I am going to order my unit soon. Better grab it when still got chance. Otherwise maybe I will regret. From what I hear from you guys, it is good and cheap. smile.gif  rclxm9.gif
*
i only download free apps for now, so all of em are free apps
its cheap and good for study oni , i heard normally rm600 oni can buy microsoft one note,words.excel and powerpoint
then half price for the keyboard

built quality and battery life is quite satisfy
temperature is acceptable(as i heard ipad even more heaty)
screen is good
camera 1MP (720p i think)
sound is acceptable compared ,bcz my HP with beats audio is a very good sound system and loud too

OS is so so only,no more bluescreen problem,performance better than an Atom processor one i would say,i got hang for few times within a week

store got lots of apps within microsoft range one-youtube,fb,twitter all unofficial
and of course Microsoft fame of lots of craps and rubbish apps
