1 out of 5 eggsGreat until it breaks.

Pros: Great speed for a tablet.
2GB RAM is good enough for most operations.
320 GB storage is amazing for a tablet.
Touch input operates great, until it breaks.

Cons: Power input on tablet became insensitive until it was unable to be charged. I had it serviced for this.

Later on, the screen became insensitive in certain regions/entire rows/columns of the screen, followed by the power input becoming insensitive again, only able to charge while at certain angles.
I have yet to service it again, I'm not sure if I want to keep putting money into this device, It's extremely useful until it breaks.

Battery life is okay; 3-4 hours isn't bad, considering the hardware it has to support.
Webcam is in an awkward location, it'd be better in a more central position.

1 out of 5 eggsDO NOT BUY!

Pros: None

Cons: Hard Drive Failed after 3 days, BIOS stated the system was for Evaluation only not for resale, TekGrabber did not reply to any of my calls or emails. Newegg gave me an RMA# on 1/15/13 and I sent the tablet to the address supplied on 1/16/13. As of today, I have not received a refund.

Other Thoughts: TekGrabber's customer service must be non existent as they have never replied to this customer.

4 out of 5 eggsSkytex Windows 7 Tablet PC

Pros: Not loaded with a lot of bloatware.
Very responsive to touch input.
Impressive speed for a tablet.
Screen very readable in bright light.
Does good job converting handwritten input to text.
2 USB ports and one micro SD port provide external input.
2GB ram ample for most jobs.
Lots of storage with 320GB hard drive.

Cons: Webcam located in upper right corner - should be more centrally located.
On my particular unit, the webcam was not always recognized by Windows. Some days it would work, some days not.
Battery life 3-4 hours could be better, but is to be expected with a hard drive.
Very tiny charger connector could be a problem for breakage if not handled gently.
Very limited documentation. Just a Quick Start Guide. Had to call to find out how to access BIOS. Keyboard keys for 'setup' or 'boot menu' require USB keyboard-bluetooth kbd not connected during boot.

Other Thoughts: Bought this unit on the positive reviews I had read elsewhere and was not disappointed. I've had this unit for only about 2 weeks, and I really like this little tablet. It is a fully functioning PC without the limitations of most other tablets. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because the unit I received had problems recognizing the webcam. I believe this is an intermittent hardware problem since the webcam sometimes works and other times not. This was not a serious problem for me since I probably would not make much use of the webcam, but it's there and it should work. So I sent the unit back to Newegg for replacement and we'll see how the new unit works when I get it. I also purchased a bluetooth keboard and mouse for more serious input. The on-screen keyboard keys are fairly small and it's helpful to have a stylus for input.

I had not previously heard of this company, so time will tell how reliable their products prove to be.
