Doing my Christmas clean-up, and came across an old tablet I had totally forgotten I even had. It is a 9" model, Android 4.2.2, kernel 3.0.8+.
No idea of CPU and RAM specs, as there is no label on it, and settings from Android back then don't seem to give that to me, unless someone here knows how to find that out? Based on age, I would expect a dual-core ARM of some kind.
Has Angry Birds on it, and it DOES connect fine to my WiFi, but every website you try to visit, it moans that it cannot be reached. I suspect this is cos of the circa 2013 browser app. Yes, system time is correct, so I suspect the sites at the other end are simply rejecting the request due to the age of the browser trying to connect.
I am on the verge of throwing it in the skip, cos although it works OK, it is so old that it probably won't accept any kind of Android upgrade, won't load any websites due to app age, and is probably slower then even the cheapest new tablets these days....
If anyone in NZ wants it, PM me.
Tablet and PSU free, but I would want you to pay for the courier bag.
