Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    I saw them too.

    The ram is so small though, like 128MB so it will struggle to run anything.
    Could be good to hook the Vagcom up to though if you an get it running windows.

          They run Android, so are 100x more useful than the rubbish Apple push out.

            I'm an Apple nerd, our whole house is with MacBook Pro's, Apple TV's, iPhones and iPods coming out our ears. The iPad is a pretty nifty device, much like a netbook, not something you would want to use full time, but it fills a small gap and does a damn good job of it. You just need to stop stop wanting it to be an all singing all dancing computer, it is a glorified iPod Touch, but the size makes it much much more useable, it also helps a lot if your already wedded to the iTunes world, using iPhones we are.

            Bottom line though, if you can get one of the windows based devices (or a cheap netbook) they make the perfect VAG-COM/Autronic/tuning computer to leave in your car, hell putting a netbook together with a $500 7" touch screen LCD and you can build yourself a pretty nifty car-puter in nothing flat for very little $$.

            If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

              Appears to have been removed, ebay doesn't like people selling fake products. Or the URL was wrong?

                      I have been looking at these thinking they could be ok. No Flash pushes me away from the Ipad (and the massive price tag). but i would really want a 'a-Pad' that can use 3G mobile. I was impressed to see them running andriod and not some bag of crap chinese OS they knocked up in a few mins.

                      So, are these tablets worth it? Short review......

                        So those of you that got one of these puppies - any comments now that you've had them and used them a while?

                        Battery life?
                        Speed?
                        Decent screen brightness?
                        Web browsing ok?

                        Thinking of getting one for the lounge.
