Followed up on my order for the zenPad as I’ve not received any shipping/tracking details yet, and surprise surprise they are struggling to keep up with the “demand”.
Dear valued customer,
We did receive your order and payment.
Due to our huge and sudden success, our facilities have a hard time to keep up with demand and shipping delays are longer than expected. Be assured that we have your best interests at heart and that we are making all our possible to ship as fast as possible. You will receive an e-mail notice as soon as your order is shipped.
Thank you for your patience.
5-7 days from order and now it looks like my iPad stands a good chance of arriving first!
Ok, I think my gadget addiction is getting out of control now. I’ve gone and ordered a 5″ Android based tablet to play with now. I figure this could be my commuting device rather than the iPad, the iPad will fit into my life as a sofa surfing experience more than anything else. I think it maybe a little too large to use on a train hence I thought I’d take a look at the Enso-Now zenPad.
The zenPad comes in at a very competitive price starting from $155 to $180 (GPS version), you can also add a 3G Micro USB dongle for $35 if you wish. Worldwide shipping is a flat $25.
Currently ships with Android 1.6 but a version of 2.x will be available within 1 month if the website is to be believed. It comes with an 8GB SD card and runs with a Samsung 6410, 533/667MHz processor which should keep the battery consumption down. Full access to the Android Market is available also. WiFi up to n speed and up to 6hours battery life.
Overall it looks like a cheap little device that could be useful to me. If not… Im sure either the kids would love with a few children’s apps on it or eBay!
I’ll drop a full review once it arrives.
