Now Open the PingSensor device and scroll down under the advanced tab. In the bottom is the field for IP or Mac add your IP in the address field.

Pro's:
Super fast
Cheap: 138£
Very good screen
Android market


Con's:
No built in 3G, though some seller says so. I think they refer to EXTERNAL 3G support
So far the GPS does not work
Charger in the package does not fit. Charge fine with USB. I contacted the seller about this.
I have seeen some remote control and usb hand control on some pictures, not included.
Have not been able to connect my mobile (over bluetooth) as modem.
Wi-Fi signal is weak. My mobile / laptop receives signal where the pad doesnt
Camera is not 2MP but much less....







I bellieve this is how the backside locks of the 3G M9. But it does only support EXTERNAL 3G
