LordFu, thanks for the info, you're the first person to say they had this happen to them as well.

I think you're right that if there's any possible way to get it flashed that would be the best course of action. I'll ask them again if they know anyone with a Windows PC.

What frustrates me is that there's no Linux or Mac update wizard, surely the app can't be that complex and difficult to port?


The thing is, they bought the tablet precisely because there wasn't any difficult stuff, you just switch it on and start the browser. Once it starts getting more complicated, it sort of spoils their reason for having the tablet.
