Maylong M-150 universal android tablet

I know what you mean. lol

what kind of touch screen does it have? resistive or capacitive?

Hrmph... out of morbid curiousity where is the kernel/ROM source for these tablets. Seeing that they fall under the same licensing as everything else Android it should be available thus allowing, assuming root and an unlocked bootloader, custom kernels and ROMs.

how is the device working out?

Darkseider, I think the lack of open source code might be why the Market isn't included. I could be wrong, though.

I am very tempted to get one just to playaround and see if I can root and add an unlocked bootloader, custom kernels and ROMs

It has a resistive touch screen.

Just wondering for those few of you that have purchased this, is it decent enough to do simple tasks on the internet i.e. look through sites pay bills and facebook? little things like that?

dunno if it's been posted yet, but i saw this over on XDA. There is a 2.1 rom that works on this tablet. Definitely makes it worth picking up

I used this one: [ROM] EPAD 256M and 128M 1.9_88 rooted v0.3 WORKING MARKET FROM FLASH it was really easy!!!

How to Install
1. Turn off device, if the device is turned on.
2. Extract files to freshly FAT32 formatted MicroSD Card (up to 16GB Supported) under a folder/directory called "script".
3. Safely eject MicroSD Card from computer, put in device.
4. Boot device up.
5. You should see a screen that says "Tablet system update will commence. Plug in AC Adapter and DO NOT TURN OFF DEVICE".
6. Follow the prompts.
7. When device shuts down, turn it back on.
8. Turn on and enjoy root and Android 2.1!

Can't believe it was so easy! No flickering or issues as of yet.

It's extra-cheap, but for light use I'm assuming it'd be fine.

[furbearingmammal]

Anything that doesn't involve facebook.

Anything.

And why wouldnt this one be better! because it cost a little more? ive seen some reviews and you can improve battery life and tweak it a bit to make it speedier.

I've heard positive things about the Augen product line. However, if I were buying a tablet I'd be saving up and plunking down the green for that FlatComputing Tegra 2 one I've been drooling over.

Ah, the joys of being broke.

This one is running 2x the CPU speed and already has 2.1 installed. I'd say if you had the extra bucks it's worth getting the Augen one instead.
