I would appreciate if anyone has more information regarding the tablet below, rooting, ability to load new roms, etc.
Seems like a good price for canada

there is nothing on this tablet. it is sold online only, so we have to do the legwork of calling walmart and Curtis to inquire.

I will try to check if it has USB or microUSB and whether a bluetooth dongle will do the trick of tunneling Internet from a cell phone with 3G.

just spoke with curtis. the device has a usb port, but putting a bluetooth won't make it get internet. maybe it will show as a storage device.
the rep said it is built and programmed to get internet through wifi.
any changes to the software to setup bluetooth internet will make the warranty void!!

Jumped on one of these when Walmart had them for 128$, I own a Nextbook Premium 7 and this thing is equal if not better in many ways.<br>
8" Capacitive Larger screen, Android Market, USB host, weak camera. &nbsp;I like it. Went back to buy another and Walmart jacked the price by $60<br>
<br>
One of the better deals, with a real warranty.

Does anyone know of an update rom that would work on this unit?
