Refurbished Ideapad Tablet A1 available for $71.05 + FS *****PRICE UPDATED****

anyone know if this can be upgraded to the newest android software?

Single core, and only 512mb of DDR2 ram. Pretty limited. Good brand though if you're just getting your first tablet.

If it had gps or bluetooth I would buy one for a dedicated Square Credit card reader unfortunately it has neither. Confused cause all the other sights says it has gps and bluetooth.

Wait a few days, it was posted here yesterday at $92, so in a few days hopefully it will be down to $50 or $60, got 2 of them in October last year for $70 shipped each, kids like them. I installed ICS that I got from the Lenovo site from one of their other similar tablets and it was a bit sluggish so I restored it back to 2.3.

can anyone confirm the specs ? does it have a gps ? also anyone here used the thing ? is it a decent table for a kid to use for light android gaming and skype ?

I had one, it has GPS. The screen is only so-so and it doesn't support Skype, which is what I bought it for, it went back the next day.

While I cannot comment on this tablet, I purchased the same nook from cowboom last month and I have been very happy. I would not hesitate to purchase a second nook from cowboom. However, it depends on the features and what you hope to get.

For me, having a large family all with nook, I was interested in the lending abilities. Then I found out how well it plays netflix and its resolution is actually decent. The only things lacking are cameras on the nook, I would like to use it to video skype, but it doesnt have a camera to do video skype.

There isn't any officially support Android other than 2.3 for this device. People have figured out how to put ICS on it by using the source/build from a newer version of this tablet, but it not officially supported like I said.

I picked this up before for from the outlet for 60 something dollars and I gave it to my sister. This tablet has a screen with poor viewing angles. It pretty slow as well on ICS. It's not a terrible tablet, but there really is just a lot better tablets out there for the money. I regretted buying it.
