NB: I managed to recover my 1x with EEPROM flasher (same as Hi12 guide and hardware) and BIOS I found on 4pda.

Hi All – Just ordered one of these (I plan on using it for photo viewing/uploading while traveling, with maybe a bit of light editing. I don’t expect Lightroom to run well, but maybe Raw Therapee?), and I have one question that isn’t answered in the review: is the MicroSD card reader a USB2-speed model like most of these tablets seem to have? I don’t want to bother buying a fast card if so. Thanks!

I don’t have any of those softwares so I really don’t know. But using Eclipse for Java development is OK, and that is a typically heavy IDE. I think the main speed issue on this type of hardware is slow storage. If you want me to run some benchmarks, let me know. microSD slot is trash, I have a Class 10 card and it is nowhere near handling even it’s maximum speed. Other USB 2.0 card readers like my desktop are better even.

Thanks a bunch CosmicDan. No bother with the Lightroom thing – I don’t actually care that much about the performance of the software as long as it lets me back up to the cloud. One more question if’n you don’t mind – how’s the speed on the full-size USB3 port?
