ViewSonic G Tablet is a 10-inch tablet with Android 2.2 Froyo and NVIDIA Tegra 2.It also providing 3D grahics acceleration and support for Flash 10.1 and 1080p HD video playback…..
ViewSonic is on a roll with their tablet creations. Having just seen the ViewSonic ViewPad at this year’s IFA, and noticing that it dual-boots Windows and Android, we’re shocked to see that this other 10-inch display tablet isn’t that. In fact, it doesn’t even dual-boot Operating Systems. Instead, it angles for a more pristine Android 2.2 approach, all of which you’ll enjoy on a ten-inch display.
The feature list doesn’t stop with the mobile Operating System (OS), though. Also inside, you’ll find NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 processor, and 1GB of RAM. The resolution of that display is 1,024 x 600, and you’ll find ports for both USB and HDMI. Bluetooth 2.1 is on board, as is integrated 802.11 n WiFi. There’s a 1.3MP camera on the back of the tablet, and you’ll find plenty of space with the 16GB of storage on board. And yes, NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 is inside, too.

- CPU: 1GHz nVidia Tegra 2 Dual Cortex A9

The tablet is reportedly able to play back 1080p media without a problem, so all you HD fans out there should be pretty pleased with that aspect, if you do decide on a tablet with the ViewSonic label on it. The expected retail landing date is some time in October, and the price tag has been marked at $529. There’s a video below that you should check out, as you contemplate whether or not that price is a bit too high or not.

Viewsonic gtablet is not ready for prime time….pocketgear thier app store will not download or have a listing of the tablet as a device that they can service with apps. Skype will not load , so how do you video conference.? The 866 support number is not working and after much todo you can get a number to call, and they have no answers and act like it’s a big mystery that nothing is ready for this tablet. This tablet was not ready for release and wait till you try getting a refund from Sears without the restocking fee of 15%.Do not buy this tablet yet,no one cares if it works or not.
sadly I agree, even with the recent software update apps don’t load properly. My very inexpensive android phone performs better. I think the unit has potential but there are a lot of bugs
I’m pretty satisfied with my Tablet, especially after the update. It does everything I need it to do and more.
I agree. I have been able to download everything I need for functionality from the Handango store online, You are also able to sideload from other websites as well, so you are only limited by your imagination. The only thing I am trying to fix now to make it a great tablet is the ability to be able to video conference between the tablet and a PC. I can go android to android but not android to PC what the F is up with that?
A 1.3MP camera? Are they kidding? I’ve seen dumbphones with better. Not worth the price for that alone. On top of that it only has 512MB of onboard storage. Froyo is not all it’s cracked up to be as far as apps2sd. Waste of money.
Well, only the first picture is taken from a G-tablet, actually.
(In the other ones, it is an Archos 101 tablet …)
You can download a better version of android to the tablet. Do a search on Google on how to root your gtablet. After you do that the g tab will outperform most of the other tablets.
