Hi Guys,
Does anyone of you out there who knows a software/developer where I can log in to their website and purchase their software? It will be just like jailbreaking to enable phone call. I really love this thing so that I have a phone and tablet. Don't suggest SAMSUNG and iphone 5 as I have already used that.

The problem with this thing is I buy tablets so I don't have to carry a notebook anymore, but iPad is so basic and restrictive all you can do is the basics. Because I expect to have as much memory as I need and use external SD, external HDD and flash drive to be able to move my data around as I need but this can't do any of that.
I expect to connect to my phone and any other device wired and wirelessly to use it as like the central hub when I'm out and about but again this can't do that.
And I expect to be able to do more than 1 thing at once so I can maybe convert/edit videos while using the internet at same time but this has almost zero multitasking.
So this just feels more like a toy compared to Android and Windows tablets so for me is completely useless.

ATTENTION! This device does not make phone calls. It uses a Sim card for internet connection only.

Worst apple product so far bad display, low cpu power and memory, and can't hold it in one hand.

Anonymous, 09 Nov 2012cause everyone on the planet pretty much has a cell phone. ... moreso your saying just because u don't use a 7 inch tablet as a phone it means everyone is the same to? 7 inch is just a lil bit bigger than galaxy note 2 and people don't complain about the note being too big as a phone. Your not gonna look retarded if your at home using it as a phone since it's ur house cuz I dunno phone died? prepaid and ran out of credit? Are you also claiming that when people's phone battery run out when they are outside and traveling, shouldnt use there tablet for emergency or a quick call cause i dunno they are gonna look uncool?
and seriously toilet? pc? are they portable? can u hold them to ur ears with 1 hand?
in conclusion, not many people may use this feature on there tablet but during an emergency, you'll be thanking this technology.

Question is why the hell would you use your 7 inch table to make a phone call when there possibility of that person probably can do that with their smart phone?
Your scenerio you just mentioned it's something you just brought for the sake of arguing. If thats the case, we might as well add that "calling" feature onto my toilet. How bout my computer? Yea they need a sim card slot, so I can make phone calls out of my f in pc. How bout bout dvd player? Lets add a phone feature onto that.

The ipad's offer different, most different is the apps that are available to apple only and the user expierence. I think most important thing for testing is how fast and smooth the tablet reacts to the user. IN this case IOS smokes android, out of the ball bark in this one. I am fully aware of what mini android tablets are out there, but I much rather have the fully reliable ipad mini.

Anonymous, 04 Nov 2012Unless the price of the ipad mini is 14 times the price of ... moreeven better, the new nexus 7 with 32gb cost the same as the old 16 gb model. Now with ipad mini, which has less ppi, less features and using very old A5 processor from ipad 2, and still costing $100 more for the 16gb model sounds like a joke to me.
the only ones that would buy this are people or girls who knows nothing about what each item has to offer for its price, and buy it for its Apple Logo.

The whole unit works fine but it is a pity Apple did not add voice to the iPad mini. It would have been a great device as opposed to more of the same.

However, when the person is talking to you, you can only hear the person through the speaker. and you have to yell into the microphone in order to talk back. Also on the other end it's not clear at all, thats why you have to yell into it. it's very retarded, and a useless feature to have. Just another bell and whistle Samsung had to add in order to "one up" on an apple product.

I agree with you. Although there's a massive difference in quality, the built-in phone remains an advantage for Samaung in the mini tab market, and Apple does not have this in its iPad mini. I wish this could come with a built-in phone, it would have been an amazing device!
