Only 128MB of RAM? That does sound vary usable.

Does anyone know of a review for this device ?? I can't find one anywhere or if anyone has one I would love to know if the ebay deal is worth it...

I'll post a report beginning of next week. Mine arrives tomorrow. I intend to use it as an ebook, email music player/reader. Quotes video functionality so if it works reasonably well I'll be happy. Teathering or wifi to my network HD would also be a plus. .MOV for off-the-card support of my pocketcam SD card playback would then be the ultimate. However, yes, for 128mb I'm not expecting much more than ebook/email/music. Even web browsing would be a plus.

Looking forward to your review next week. I received mine on Saturday, I am concerned about the 128mb as well. Looking to use as a reader as well. I have been looking at ebook readers, Nook, kobo, etc. Did not want to spend that kind of money for just a reader. I saw this on ebay and thought about it and purchased, knowing that I have 30 days to return. What I have noticed is the wifi is not that great, and not sure how to boost that. I can go outside with any of my computers and get a good signal, the cyberus will not pick it up at all. Even in the house where I have a excellent signal, the cyberus is one bar maybe two sometimes. Still working with it and would like to know how to move programs to the added micro card. Anyway I would like to hear from the experts what the think about this for $150.00.

Did not wait, requested RMA today. Still would like to see what everyone else has to say or think about this product.

Sorry for the delay. I've been spending a lot fo time testing and working with a lot of differnent hardware as well as this.

I only have three complaints.

1 - I don't know how much RAM this thing has ebay and buy.com list 128. Sungale lists it as 256. I can't find any way to check since I'm so new to android.

2. the MicroSD card slot has embossed "T-FLASH" in front such that it's nigh impossible to remove the chip.

3. Glare in sunlight. You can't use this thing outside during the day.

4. I wish it had bluetooth. But this doesn't count because I knew that.
Else I wouldn't notice memory concerns. takes a moment to boot. Recognizes my PNY 8Gb. I watched 720p xvid with no stuttering or problems. Touch screen is reconsive but not too sensitive as I was always frustrated with my smart phone experiences.

5. Can't figure out how to remove facebook (LOL). Awaiting diaspora.

Ebooks look great. Wifi connects perfectly with WPA2 AES-256. Touch screen keyboard makes you want to punch someone in the face but that's a given. Again, A small handheld bluetooth keyboard would have been nice to be able to nab for this.

For $150 I'm ecstatic. Plus camera; webcam etc. Duck tape solves everything.
