I got mine from UK ########### vendor sarahr9370, who answered my questions promptly, picked black for me and checked it had no dead pixels before she sent it.

It also arrived the next day, all present and correct, I'll probably get my Aurora II from her too in the future, when they've ironed the bugs out!!!
Novo 7 Aurora 8GB - bought April 12th came with 4.0.3
Tech savvy but new to Android so I am looking for clues...

Thinking of buying from Chinagrabber?? THINK AGAIN

I wonder who could be voting down my posts so that I get a negative reputation ?

When was the order placed?: 01.04.2012
When was the order shipped?: 09.04.2012

How was it shipped?: CHINA POST

Tablet looks good so far. I have one dead pixel on the upper edge of the screen, so not to much disturbing. Vibration does not seem to work but this is something I turn off immediately anyway.
