Byron, I have owned a Viewsonic g tablet since early December and love it, it is a potent piece of hardware.

Unfortunately, out of the box it's a real dog. Viewsonic added a pathetic user interface overlay on top of Android making it run slowly and look terrible. Whoever decided that was fit for public consumption should exiled to Siberia with nothing but a BetaMax VCR and a copy of PeeWee's Big Adventure for company.

Fortunately, a strong little development community has evolved (Viewsonic G Tablet - xda-developers). If you are prepared to follow some pretty straightforward instructions and replace Viewsonic's junkware, you can have a fast, fun tablet. If not, I am afraid I would have to advise you to steer clear. Sad really.
