I own the U2, ....not familiar with that tablet, does the fw suck? The U2 is a work in progress.
this exynos device looks like a winner!!!
however, we know by now that its not about hardware specs only,
to make it, this box needs a real dedicated tech team that works hard to fix any issues encountered by users.
Your last sentence says it all really. Decent spec though and if the price is right could be one to own.
No ethernet is a shame, as I don't want to use WiFi although I suppose a USB-to-Ethernet dongle is a possibility (although it means extra cost, and hassle if drivers are a problem).
