Probably true, but I've been adding software to my tablet for well over a year, and the thought of adding all that crap back again one .deb at a time after reflashing the tablet (and finding copies of all the weird stuff for the new OS level to begin with) seems a little scary to me.

If my second one was simply a spare, it wouldn't be an issue, but my wife has claimed it for her own Pidgin use so I've lost all say in what software goes on that tablet...

In any case, what I do have works well and is stable. I'm loathe to change it just for a few additional ports. At some point, though, maybe I'll acquire a third and use it to play around a little more...
