      This is a terrible tablet. The screen has a very narrow usable angle and low resolution. Several times a month the will refuse to wake, with no way to use, reboot, or shut down the tablet other than to unplug it and wait several days for the battery to drain down and shut off. I can see why Dell cancelled it, but not why they ever sold it.

      #1, consider yourself lucky. I had the 4G version and on the most aggressive battery saving scheme it was never able to survive 24 hours on stand-by, without any app running in the background. And I'm talking stock ROM, too -- although I suppose a tweaked Android might have improved things drastically.
      And as you say, the screen resolution is low and angles of vision very limited. In other words, a total POS.
