What issue? Never had problem with Bluetooth.

On the other hand, downloaded bios 1.13 and drivers 1.03 packages. Seem like having the same content when I unzipped it. Totally forgot had to plug in AC power when flashing bios. Was wondering why it didn't work.

The flickering screen now totally gone. Nice update.

Driver package usually contains the BIOS update.

Just saw your W4 vs Venue 8 Pro video. I saw you get awful FPS in Risk of Rain. I tried the demo on mine and it does not lag at all. Very smooth for the mouse and gameplay.

Sorry for being lazy, but i did asked for shop, maybe should specify retail shop cos i need to get the cover ASAP. Cannot wait for 4+ days for Lazada or Lelong.

Yes, someone bought from retail shop and it did showed up in the search result. Did you read?

Whether its out of stock or not, you have to call and ask.

I see two names there.

Gratz man... I only kena RM500 gift voucher...

Was hoping for one of the 3 main prizes... oh well, better than nothing...

I wonder did they really give you the $$$ or Acer vouchers because consolation stated gift voucher for consolation, and those 3 are gold voucher. If really gold vouchers from those jewelers, then this CNY really bling bling.

Your surname Kam = Gold... Ong sudah mali

Nothing to do with Win 8.1 itself, there's just something funny with the BT chip that Acer is using.

I believe even Dell is using the same broadcom chip which works as WiFi and Bluetooth. No problem here or whatsoever.

I believe some of the problem encountered are partly caused by Win8. I definitely hate the wifi setting for Win8. Totally lacking and had to use troubleshoot to change between public and private network. Used to be able to change it easily. Then there is this mess with wifi ssid.

Dell venue 8 pro price is not bad.

http://www.ipmart.com/usa/product/Dell,Ven...php?prod=369818

wonder if i should go for dell venue 8 pro and if sypnaptic can come out with drivers to improve the sypnaptic  digitzer experience. It is certainly nice to have an active stylus and not just depend on capacitive stylus.

I have already bought my adonit jot mini to test out and it works quite ok on my android pc. Still wacom has no challenger up to now.

maraudez reported having problems getting the adonit jot pro to work on his sypnaptic enabled screen. I wonder could it be because of screen protector problem because even though the dell venue 8 pro has sypnaptic enabled screen, it is also a capacitive screen and stylus like the adonit is made for capacitive screens.

Once again, has anyone tried the new touchpal onscreen keyboard for windows 8?

http://www.touchpal.com/en/downloads.html#win8

i am so interested to know how it works out bacause having a good onscreen keyboard helps a lot for "away=from=table" computing.

Are you sure about that?

Its 32GB only, plus the Air Mail took forever to arrive.

Too bad the keyboard does not work in Metro UI. Not to mention that it still start with traditional keyboard and you have to switch it every time you use the keyboard.

Better buy a Bluetooth keyboard.

It seems that Dell thinks it might be a hardware issue and intends to come out with new pens sometime soon. (at least, something is going on there.) If the new pen works well, then it can be a good alternative to wacom. What i don't get it is why the adonit jot stylus doesn't work well with the dell venue 8 pro screen.

But yes, as you say it takes forever to arrive and that  is the problem. I don't mind 32 gb or 64 gb because i always save or download files to my home made NAS (network attached storage drives). With each passing day, I am getting tired of waiting for asus wacom 8 inch tablet and yet still  like the idea of having a good active stylus to handle the desktop part.

Thanks for the feedback on touchpal. Unfortunately, it isn't working out well in metro tiles side.

Actually, I have never been a fan of stylus or touch for Windows, despite was dreaming about it many years back.

It was too expensive back then in 2002. When it finally got cheap few years back, bought a Acer 1825 and was disappointed. Fast forward today, and Im still left a bit disappointed. Windows hardly ever changed, in terms of user interaction. It was a bit like the Metro UI app for Symbian phone. Make an app that houses all the new interaction apps while left the old one to the old ways. Thats not helping a single bit.

Honestly speaking, I have better success using Splashtop Remote Desktop to draw in Autocad from my tablet/smartphone than on Acer W4 itself. Still have to buy a bluetooth keyboard mouse for it.

If you asked me, I would rather Microsoft spin off one department to start fresh. Come out with a product that competes with Microsoft Windows and continue to evolve until it can finally overtook Windows.

But Microsoft as a whole may be deem to big to fail.

But THEY HAVE! It's called Windows RT, normal users think that Windows RT refers to the OS that powers appliances like the Microsoft Surface and Nokia 2520. But to the developers Windows RT is referring to the new modern platform which is updating the UI concepts for the new devices and also consolidating them. Windows RT is in use in Windows 8, Windows Phone and the Xbox One. Even though it's not quire visible yet.

If you've been following and understanding the Windows Phone 8.1 SDK leaks, you can see that Windows Phone is already merging to become one with Windows.

Erm, I don't think it's Windows replacement. Just a mere spin off of Metro.

Something different and which would take new form of input, like how Samsung integrate the S Pen. Not some Windows wannabe.

Back to the discussion about processors ARM and Intel, I suspect I may be wrong but Intel baytrail still has some hurdles that it hasn't overcome yet.  especially when I see how all machines running on baytrail must be charged using the same usb port that is also used for data transfer. It is almost like they prefer if users don't make the cpu become over active while the machine is being charged. Well, it's a mystery. Now, we see Adroid tablets using the x86 bay trail processors and I wonder if those tablets also have only 1 microusb - for charging and for data transfer.

You dont use the USB for file transfer because its a PC. Only when you use the USB OTG with a pen drive. Personally, I too always forget that its a PC and keep plugging them to my desktop, like I always did with my iPad but it does not work that way.

They even provide 3yrs warranties with only RM899, which is even cheaper compare to the last pc fair  rclxub.gif

Free Bluetooth speaker as well?

Saw some trader selling used Venue 8 pro for 799. Shame because just 32gb.

I think 8 inch may not be selling well at all. Just the initial hoohaa as usual.
