The link makes it seem like crap hardware, and sure 4gb of ram is really crappy. But how does this compare with one of my kid’s Fire tablets? Does anyone have opinions on that?

    I mean, everything comes from China. But you mean the processor could be doing nepharious things under the hood to steal data from us and give it to China?

      It doesn’t bother me that it’s made in China, it bothers me that it’s shipping from China.

      I’m careful to check now, but in the past I’ve accidentally ordered products through Amazon that were actually third-party China-based corporations. More often than not I didn’t get the product and had to jump through hoops to get a refund.

      Personally, I do not like the fact that the money they make from the device will end up as a portion of taxes going to the CCP. Plus all the card/address info being sent there too.
