(By the way, the “[cc steal music]” is Google Translatese of an animated emoticon that actually looks more like “snicker.”)

Good luck!

Great news, they finally acknowledged it!
BTW I finally decided in getting the v975w – it will probably come before this weekend. Even with those software problems it’s the one for me.
Let us know how that all goes.
From what I understand from the pictures, it’s just a guide on how to overclock and generally optimize CPU usage. No issue addressed.
Hm, yet the GTranslate seems to indicate differently. Weird.
I finally received the tablet, but I already have to send it back to replacement because of screen issues (dodgy brightness because of connector probably). The seller didn’t even tried to make a packaging, the box has dents in every corner.
Other than that it’s really promising!
I think the dodgy brightness is something others have seen too. Did you update the firmware first?
It’s a pure hardware issue because the more I press the bottom bezel the more bright it become. It’s probably a loose connector as I said, and also the right speaker doesn’t seem to work. I guess it was how it was delivered.
Mine is running very well since a few weeks (after image-recovering and updating etc.). Bluetooth seems buggy after all and wifi had a bad driver. It also seems that something is draining the battery also when its shut down. So after a few days the battery is empty.
But the battery lasts a long time when the tablet is running.
I also never had the CPU usage issue.
Doing a post about the Bluetooth issue. Good luck — all in Chinese!
