5" Android Tablet $155

I don't see anything overtly wrong in that thread. If anything I see HN readers behaving badly by taking advantage of someone whose English isn't that great. For the most part the things people were attacking him for are things that almost every manufacturer does in China (copying web sites for example).

I don't see anything that indicates he's dishonest (and even if I did I'm not sure it would detract given the price)

Android 1.6? Make it bigger and use current version of Android and I'll buy one.

Well, you've been warned.

I think there is plenty in that thread that is not above board, but of course you are entitled to your own opinion.

The most important thing I learned is that it's not his device. He's just re-branding a device that other people made. It's also clear he doesn't understand the technology he's selling. It also seems to be true that he was taking paid orders before he actually had a device.
