Disgo 6000

The initial splash screen says Infotmic.

The price isn't too bad. If this thing is stable, it is the low cost goto alternative in Europe. It is up to you guys to find out.

Thanks for sharing what you know with us.

There is an update available (use the system update app).
Adds useful things like a shutdown icon, adds a better filesystem browser.

Now I've got it off the wife and ConnectBot loaded up on it - I'm going to be having a serious poke about with it (once I've had a sleep).

Plays TS (transmission stream) files recorded straight from the satellite box - which is rather nice.
Resistive screen which isn't so nice.

Anything else you want to know about its specs/stats let me know and I'll start dumping the info.

Hi Stiggle

I have got disgo android 2.1 also. How did you access the System update app? I cannot find it in mine. Wish it's upgradeable to 2.2 .

I got one of these for Christmas and can't get it to connect to the internet. It detedts the modem, and accepts the password, but won't connect. Anyone else had this problem?

Hi all,

I've very recently purchased a Disgo 6000 tablet which runs Android 2.1.

For the money it's a great little device and I'm very happy with it.

Only major gripe is the difficulty in finding apps that are only available from the official Android Market. Has anyone been either:-

a) successful in installing the official market on this device

or

b) found another good source for these apps that I can sideload?

Thanks.

looking at this tablet it looks like it and the sylvania are the same tablet with different badging. Someone else posted in my Market Thread that they used my walkthru to get the google market working on theirs. here's the link incase you want to try

It does seem to mess up WiFi scanning occasionally.
TS files - I renamed them from .ts to.mpeg and then played through the Gallery.

I wasn't aware it was just a rebrand before, but the Sylvania branded tablets seemed to have more issues out of the box, maybe because of old shipping firmware with the first batches.

Edit:
I think the two firmwares have different OTA servers. Since Disgo is branded Infotmic out of the box, it is probably the OEM variant. If there is a build date, we can figure out which tablet has the newer firmware.

The Sylvania had some issues initially. Maybe they received the first batch from the OEM.

Someone who is rooted also can bravely try to modify the firmware. We need dumps since this thing doens't seem to have recovery.

Does suspend mode on the 6000 work?
