More powerful than any smartphone and faster than the iPad, this sleek unit is has the fastest mobile CPU available today – NVIDIA’s Tegra 2, Dual ARM 9 CPU (1GHz clock speed) with 8 separate processors that can run independently or together for maximum performance. Built for the Android 2.2 operating system, this versatile device allows constant access to the web with built-in Wi-Fi and can be customized in virtually unlimited ways through thousands of Android apps available online.

And the 3-axis accelerometer will bring your games to life… arcade style. Enjoy your favorite movies, music, or 3D games on the go and never worry about power – with up to 5 hours of video or a hundred hours of music on a single charge of the 2-cell Lithium Polymer battery, this affordable tablet will probably outlast you!



The Freedom of Android

Although the eLocity A7 Internet Tablet comes ready for use with a selection of pre-installed applications for Android 2.2, it can be customized with third-party apps available online. Because it is an Open-Source platform, the number of applications designed for Android has skyrocketed. Almost 75,000 apps are currently available, ranging from Sip Phone to map and email utilities to apps that allow you to work with Microsoft Office files. Most of the apps are free to download and can be modified relatively easily. With Open-Source flexibility, you have the power to create your own applications or tailor existing apps to suit your own personal tastes. Now that’s freedom!

High Resolution and 1080p Viewing

With a high-resolution 800 x 480 capacitive touch screen and the fastest mobile processor ever – NVIDIA’s Tegra 2, Dual Core 1Ghz CPU – eLocity’s A7 Internet Tablet was made for multimedia.

The 4GB internal high speed flash memory can store up to 4 feature films, 40,000 photos, or 2,000 songs for countless hours of entertainment. For accessing unlimited media, the unit offers 2 different options for expanded memory. A micro SDHC slot supports memory cards up to 32GB and a USB 2.0 port supports flash memory devices up to 64GB, increasing your media storage to nearly a million photos, 48,000 songs or up to 96 movies at any given moment. Watch videos in the most popular formats, even in 1080p. Supported codecs include H.264, MPEG-4, DivX and Real Video with MOV, FLV, MP4, AVI, and MKV file formats. With such versatility, you may wonder if this is a media player or a computer server… with the HDMI output for true 1080p viewing, the eLocity A7 Internet Tablet is both.

The unit supports Flash, so you’ll be able to view web content the way it’s meant to be seen! Several browsers are available to send you on your way, and the high-resolution touch screen displays websites in crisp and vivid detail.

If you’re tired of scrolling and zooming on your mobile phone, it’s time to see what this powerful 7-inch tablet can do!

There’s even an Airplane Mode that allows you to disable all wireless connections in a single place!

Now you can flip from network to network, depending on which one suits your convenience. Download and upload speeds are dependent upon the network, location and traffic.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for what it is December 15, 2010
First off, I'll apologize for writing a review after owning this tablet for only one night. I hate these kinds of reviews but I felt this needed at least one review from a real customer.

In my few hours with it last night, I downloaded and installed several apps on it from GetJar, including Facebook and Kindle. I also downloaded several apps from my PC onto a thumb drive and installed them onto the tablet from that, which was very cool. I visited several websites that had flash banners and they worked flawlessly. I was also able to play embedded videos on sites including youtube.com and my facebook news stream.

Pros:
- USB port - I plugged an 8GB flash drive in and installed apps from it.
- Micro SD slot - Haven't used it yet but plan to soon
- HDMI port - Haven't used this yet either but it's a great option
- Video looks great
- Very responsive when touching links or rotating display
- Browser is quick and displays flash
- Great price for the specs

Cons:
- Lack of good, working apps. For the A7, you get your apps from GetJar, instead of the Android marketplace. Some apps refused to install for me, like Angry Birds. Others installed but clearly weren't made to work on this size tablet. There isn't a netflix or skype app available (I was hoping to use the webcam with skype).
- Pinch-to-zoom doesn't work particularly well. Seemed to always go way too far in or out. You're better off just double-tapping.
- Scrolling - scrolling by sliding my finger seems to cause a lot of unintended clicks along the way. I think there's just a bit of a learning curve, being used to my ipod touch. It seemed to happen less as the night went on.
- The fixed buttons aren't backlit so at first it's difficult to use in the dark. You quickly figure out where they are and it's not that big a deal
- So far it's been hard to find any cases or accessories built for the A7
- I wasn't able to set up my yahoo mail in the default mail client. Instead, I installed the yahoo mail app, which is basically a shortcut to the mobile yahoo mail site, which works fine.

This purchase was for my wife, who wanted something like an iPad but at a size that fit in her purse. This is almost the exact same size as my 2nd generation Kindle (a little thicker). So far she's used it to quickly check and respond to things on Facebook, check emails and surf the web. Because of the speed and ease of use, it should supplant most of her laptop use, with the exception of sending long emails and working on speadsheets.

I trust there will be more and better apps for android tablets in the near future. It looks like there are A LOT of similar tablets hitting the market now. For me, this tablet looked like the best specs for the best price right now and I imagine it will be even more fun to use as new apps are made for it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Tab for the price! December 19, 2010
Have had this device for 3 days now and I am more than impressed. This thing is blazing fast and very responsive. Sure there are issues but developer is releasing patch to address these by 12-24-12 according to their web site. Hopefully this fix will address the problems with wi-fi waking ,Nvidia drivers (not able to play angry birds.. etc). True the multi-touch and lack of market are a bummer, but what do you want for 300 bucks? So glad I did not spend double this price on a Galaxy tab that will be outdated in 6 months.

pros
-Fast, fast, fast
-Screen res is great for the specs
-Very responsive
-HDMI out is awesome
-USB and SD card media (Bite me Apple)
-rooted out of the box
-300 bucks!
- Jetflicks streaming on 7 inch screen!
-Flash player rocks (Bite me Apple)
-Great reader

Cons
-No Market (hopefully XDA developers will help with this)
-Wi-fi fails to wake from sleep (workaround available and patch coming 12-24-10)
-Nvidia drivers not up to date (patch coming 12-24-10)
-Not true multi-touch ( not an issue for me, I have no plans on making this into a gaming rig)
-Proprietary connector for dock (not a big issue since there is USB/SD card support)
-Menu buttons have no back lighting

5.0 out of 5 stars Great device - blows iPad away on speed January 14, 2011
Just got the a7 today and think it is a great device. Even with the original firmware - the device is blazing fast, more below, no WiFi issues and the pinch and zoom is adequate. Firmware Update - Version 2.0121 of 12/24 further improves pinch and zoom - which we will apply tomorrow - and update our review once done. XDA have an Android Market ROM so the a7 can gain access to Market.

Build quality is very sturdy - some have commented on its being plasticky - but it's a rubberized, non-slip plastic. Perfectly respectable.

We are certain that XDA will do Honeycomb in due course.

First off - we should say we are an Apple shop - iMacs, MacBook Airs, Minis and iPads - so when we say the a7 blows the iPad away on speed - we are not coming from an anti-Apple perspective. Quite the opposite. Example - loading cnn.com on the a7 fully rendered in about a half a second - the iPad 6 seconds.

1080p playback is super fast and very smooth.

Updated Review - 01/17

Just applied new firmware rev Version 2.0121 and then Version 2.0124.

Fixes all outstanding issues - improved pinch and zoom, better battery.

Awesome tablet - almost twice the Quadrant benchmark score of the Archos A70.
