ViewSonic Updates Android OS for ViewPad® 10 Tablet
前文:早在去年度資訊展,一時手癢敗下了 ViewPad 10 。對於它的Android OS一直無法升級而耿耿於懷,甚至發mail給優派客服詢問是否可以升級Android。而得到的回覆總是令人失望。雖然在網路上有找到國外高人製作並且for ViewPad 10的Android 2 OS,但是不敢冒然下手,因為文中最後提醒使用者,如果出了問題,可是叫天天不應,叫地地不靈;拿回原廠送修,也可能會面臨收費的窘境。時屆今日,總算是出來稍為新一點的版本了。WEBWIRE – Tuesday, May 03, 2011 (今年2011年5月初公佈)
