Hey Al - thanks for the feedback - good to know about the Updates issue - and also the feedback about Screen types.
As for whether the COBY's get the OS updates - I suspect Peter will have an answer to that one - since he does sell them. -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf Of Allen Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2012 4:15 PM To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: RE: [NF] Writing a program for Linux Tablets. I this capacitive is more sensitive. I have a resistive android tablet and it's a dog. One thing I have found with android devices is the lack of willing to update the o/s. So, many cheapies will come with an o/s and probably will never get updates. Some phone makers like Samsung are terrible and treat 6 month old 400+ quid phones as old. So don't buy Samsung as the chances are they will stay put and never updated. That's one thing, despite the hate of apple, I will give them, My ipad 2 got ios6 and updates. Might be more control I know but updates none the less. Anyway, might be best to do some reading to find out who actually keeps up to date with older machine and supports them. Al -----Original Message----- I was just browsing around on Amazon - and I see there is a BUNCH of different versions of their Tablets. At this point - since it would be more of a Toy - I was just considering the 7" ones. Is that the ones you sell? Some of them has what they call a "Capacitive Multi-Touch" - another is referred to as a "Internet Touchscreen Tablet - MID7012-4G", and still another model claims to be a "Resistive Touchscreen, Black MID7034-4". I'm not sure what the differences are. So - any further input would be much appreciated!
