Fabulous entry level Android tablet

Pros: The price is right. Sure, there are better Android tablets out there, but this is a fabulous entry level Android tablet at a great price. It has a clean, stock build of Android. It has access to the full Google Play store, and every app I've tried has worked fine, though that is a very small subset of the hundreds of thousands of apps on the Play store. Music sounds fabulous through my moderately expensive Klipsch headphones, and it identifies the in-line headphones mic which works great with VoIP apps. (It also has a built-in mic.) MicroSDHC/microSDXC slot is fabulous! You can expand the storage at a fair and reasonable price instead of getting price gouged and skewered to add another 16, 32, or 64 GB of storage. Battery life varies extensively with usage and the duration the screen is on, but for my usage, I'm always getting over a day of use before recharging.
Cons: No indicator light to flash at you when you receive new email, or the battery is low, etc.
Overall Review: The built-in speaker is functional, but nothing to get excited about. It only does 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi; it does not support 5 GHz Wi-Fi. It fits in my pocket, but it is not the most comfortable to keep in my pocket when I'm sitting.
Fast wireless

Pros: I've had this just over 2 months, and it is still running great. Update worked without a glitch. Decent GUI. Lots of options to set. Good range on wireless, and the connections are solid within its range. Simultaneous 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz operation lets my newer devices connect at 5 GHz without leaving behind my older devices that still only do 2.4 GHz.
Cons: Runs a little warm.
Overall Review: I hope it lasts a good long time as 802.11ac becomes more of common standard with new devices.
Plug it in == USB3 up front

Pros: If you have an older case that doesn't have USB3 ports up front, and you have a newer motherboard with the 20 pin USB3 pin header, this is a quick and easy way to make use of the USB3 ports up front.
Cons: It occupies a 3.5" bay and may not blend smoothly with how the rest of your case looks.
Overall Review: I haven't tried mounting any 2.5" drives in it. It looks like if you have 2 of the 20 pin USB3 pin headers on your motherboard, you could get 2 of these and consolidate all 4 ports into a single 3.5" bay.
Good basic DOCSIS 3 cable modem

Pros: Works great; solid 30+ Mbps (my subscribed package). No longer paying TWC a montly cable modem lease fee. As long as this thing lives a year and a half, I'm saving money. Minimal hassle to chat with TWC to activate this modem, and then swing by their office to drop off the old modem I was leasing.
Cons: Only one ethernet port. Very basic; no options to set.
Overall Review: I was leasing a Moto SBG6580 from TWC which included wireless, but its wireless was junk. Combined this SB6121 with an Asus RT-AC66U for more ports and and a solid wireless network, and it is doing great.
Great board, could have been 5 eggs

Pros: 3 months in, and this has been a great uATX board with my Core i7-3770. Very solid in Win7-64; I can go weeks between reboots. Intel NIC gives great network performance. Color scheme grabs your attention; you'll either love it or hate it. I would have preferred a red/black color scheme, but this isn't bad. And I received the mail-in-rebate.
Cons: As clearly mentioned in the Newegg pictures, video, and several other reviews, the 2nd PCI Express 3.0 slot that you would use for Crossfire or SLI is the slot at the end of the board. This makes no sense for a board marketed towards uATX gaming. There is no shortage of ATX Z77 gaming boards, but if you specifically want uATX smaller form factor for gaming, you'll have a uATX case with room for exactly 4 slots. Any medium to high performance graphics card is going to be 2 slots wide, so uATX Crossfire or SLI is pointless with this motherboard. If they had simply moved it one slot in, this would be a 5 egg board for uATX gaming.
Overall Review: This is my first Gigabyte board since '486 days. I've become disappointed in the premature deaths of other brands of motherboards, and I'm glad I gave Gigabyte a shot with this board. After upgrading to the latest beta BIOS, I'm missing the boot-up picture of the flaming skull guy. Hopefully he will be restored once they release an official BIOS. The poster and stickers are pointless, IMHO. I would have rather saved $1 or $2 without them. I haven't tried the integrated audio; I'm using the HDMI audio from my AMD graphics card.
