Craig Wireless Netbook - Powered by Android 4.0

Absolute worst excuse for a laptop in the history of laptops I wouldnt even pay 20 dollars for this brand new Even if the year was 2000 because there were probably better computers out there by then... Wifi card signal weak cpu WEAK ram... BAHAHA dont ask...

i got this thinking it was a laptop far from it. i would not recommend this to anyone i would recommend thwolvol 10 '' mini laptop

need a couple of netbooks for the kids so they can access info for homework online these are easy to use

An absolutely terrific tool! Connects to my Hi-Def big screen tv, to my pc or my Blackberry mobile as USB or to Charge or to Sync. Further, it screen-rotates and is a remote controller or Presentation device. This post repeats my reply to 'ES' low-star review. ES may have thought they got a 4.0, but got a 2.0 by mistake. So this review covers 'issues' for both. Too, B+N Kindle-Page reviewers really slammed this product. That was a B-I-G motivator for me to get the Craig. So, here are all user helps..."I don't work for RiteAid or Android - I'm just a power user and like portable-gear. Please reconsider returning this mere $80 so you end up with all the same problems after spending it's $350 colleagues' cost! This RiteAid Craig $80 install of Android 4.0 (or 2.0) has complainers in ebay, amazon, B+N - all due to ... User Error. If you accidentally got 2.0 instead, check for auto-updates. The 4.0 version is visible on the box cover and is SO much more loaded (HDMI 3Dgaming Ethernet vid/cam 3usb card-reader etc with the Tablet only slightly varied). 1--Dropped connection. After install/link/connection, most pc's need a reboot. Netbooks are the same. All connecting is automatic beyond the user's first wifi 'install, reboot, wait a few seconds to let it initialize and orient.' No per-use action required - ever (except you choose which wifi connect from your popup list you made from your ... library, coffee shop, home network, etc). 2--DOA. Dead after 3 hours use happens when users omit either rule: charge 4 hours before using, or, you'll damage the battery if you charge it over 24 hours straight. 3--Keyboard/Mouse Speed. The 'Settings' includes a keyboard speed adjustment, if you use an add-on mouse, your mouse's software has adjustable settings. 4--File transfer problems, for anything beyond wifi you can resolve it through downloading (free) ES File Explorer in the Android's numerous bundled free apps. 5--Web access fails. Using the provided Browser app, and (if at Starbucks for example) keeping that wifi connect screen layered beneath your work keeps your connection (at Starbucks etc) valid and intact. Android (not Craig) set up all the apps you need, so going round about ways won't necessarily compute (esp w/ remotely wifi). 6--Total fail. Android is google-based. You need a google account (free). 7--'Cheap' command structure. Welcome to Android - it's identical to their mobile phones. Don't blame RiteAid or Craig. "

did not work at all. very very very very cheesy. was not working at all. never charged. quality is very bad

I have one of these and I enjoyed it for about the first 3 months, and then it just stopped turning on. Period. Doesn't matter if I charge it. Doesn't matter if I don't. It just refuses to turn on.

The Craig netbook is NOT a laptop substitute. Far from it. The screen is tiny, the applications are limited compared to their Windows counterparts, and the browser doesn't support Flash. Once you've accepted that it is essentially a no-frills Android tablet with a keyboard, you won't be disappointed and you might even enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed mine for the past year.This neat little device fits easily in my purse. It's perfect for checking e-mails, updating Facebook and Twitter, and doing some casual web browsing. Factory-installed applications include the Kindle app and Piscel Smart Office, which allows you to create and edit Word documents, spreadsheets, and Power Point presentations. (Note: for Smart Office, you'll need to insert an SD card) The battery life is comparable to a laptop's: 3-5 hours, depending on usage. It supports both wireless and Ethernet internet connections.The manual that came with my netbook was limited: if you get one, be prepared to learn a lot of things on the fly. But considering everything that I got for such a low price, I'm not complaining.

i have the 4.0 version and am satisfied with it-as long as there is at least a 50% charge on the battery and the power cord is firmly connected then wi fi is easy and fast.like the memory card feature and the touchpad mouse is easy to use.Since this first review, I have upgraded to the 10 inch slimbook and did have an issue with the welcome screen freezing.Craig customer service did replace the unit.no problems with it since.both the 7 and 10 inch get online and download quickly as long as the wifi connection is strong.have ordered the dual core 14 inch which should arrive by the end of the week.
