Wi-fi works sometimes. I can logon to a web-site, but when I select an article to read Wi-fi stops working.

I had high hopes for the Lifedrive. I was excited by the specifications for the device (its relatively large storage capacity and its large display); However, I encountered substantial problems within weeks of my purchase:

a) The initial version of the Lifedrive's operating system was VERY unstable (for example, the screen would frequently go blank/"white" for no apparent reason when turned on and would require a system reset to enable to system to "boot")
b) The system resets required to 'un-freeze' the device occasionally wiped-out all of the software I installed on the device requiring me to reinstall everything and re-enter all of the product keys
c) After several months of frequent system freezes/system crashes the Lifedrive's mini hard drive completely failed: when the device was turned on it made clicking noises but would not boot (in case you're wondering, the device was handled carefully and had a nice Rhino metal case with foam padding - perhaps a strong breeze damaged the device)

[...]
The Lifedrive is a horrible product. Save your money and your time by avoiding this device.
