Selling this POS

[anon(19759)]

I'm tired of this junk. WebOS is horrible for browsing, CM7 and 9 aren't much better. My friends have their galaxy, zoom and ipads and they load sites as fast as a desktop. This TP is embarrassing and I'm tired of having to spend my free time tweaking and flashing just to get half the web experience. On my way to BB now, coming home with either a galaxy 8.9 or two kindle fires.

Edit - I'm keeping the TP, CM9 now working great since a full wipe and reload. Originally loaded over CM7, that was a mistake.

New edit - TP is on ebay, Fire went back. Now rocking brand new Galaxy 8.9 and not looking back.

I can't believe that you would consider that we would be in the slightest bit interested.

I don't care if you're interested.

So, here's the funny part. Picked up a Kindle Fire, opened the box, and the whole right bezel is loose, meaning it squeaks LOUDLY every time I hold in my right hand. Wow, is that annoying or what? So, while my wife was playing with the Fire, I wiped my Touchpad back to original WebOS factory fresh then loaded up CM9 again from scratch. No idea why, but it seems to be running pretty smooth now, especially on browsing. It's certainly as fast as the Fire. Problem now is I can't afford to keep both. I love the small size of the Fire for certain reasons but also love the TP size. If I keep the Fire, have to sell the TP. If I decide to keep the TP, I must return the Fire. I guess it's good to have a choice, but now I have no idea what to keep.

You are right!
However I was making the point that there was no real need for the OPs post in the first place, but, I get your drift.

It was only 99 dollars just sayin. Honestly for that price you cant get a better tab imo. Your choice though just my 2 cents

You're right about that, but it was so painful to use until I wiped and reloaded CM9. Now it's pretty good, so it looks like the Fire is going back.

A galaxy I could see but a kindle I can't. Your points are valid but this isn't my daily drive so I'll be holding on to mine & using nexus for ics.

It really came down to price. We use the tablet at home for browsing and games, so the Fire works pretty well for that, but yep, the Fire is going back tonight. CM9 runs pretty smooth and I'm loving the new Chrome browser. I just couldn't afford to keep both.

Can a mod change the thread title to "Was going to sell TP, CM9 changed my mind"?

Yea I agree with how bad webos is sometimes, but it could be worse... I'm looking at you blackberry playbook! lol but seriously I can't wait to get a good stable ICS port on this thing I mean we are sooooo close.

In the end, the Fire went back and the TP is going on ebay or somewhere to sell. Picked up the Galaxy 8.9 last night, loving it.

For $99, the TP is fine by me. Running CM9 0.6 is good. And it will get better once the video accelleration is fixed.

WebOS is probably the best OS out there. But since app develpment has essentially stopped, I wouldn't use it.

Having two laptops and a Photon 4g phone, I can't really justify paying for a Xoom or iPad. The TP is doing just what I need.

With the cm9 alpha 2 install this is just getting better every day. I tried netflix just for the hell of it last night and of course there was no picture but I was impressed that there was sound. Now with the latest update, netflix is up and running. For $99 the TP was a hell of a deal just when there was only webOS but now it's awesome, even with the bugs, which will get worked out.
