Dell Venue Pro

Just got this bad boy today.... Really liking the construction on this unit. Dell may have a hit on their hands with this beast...

Yes it is nice. Its surprising really. Get OTG (On the Go) cable. Get a usb flash drive with at 8GB in size. Use these instructions to gain some internal space back from the hidden recovery. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-8/create-usb-recovery-drive. The OTG cable can be used for anything a full size usb port can be used for. I did try to use my usb powered portable hard drive but it didn't push enough power to spin it.

Is there a way to make the default font larger?

I am looking for a decent bluetooth keyboard + mouse combo for this beast of a tablet.

I am also considering this:

My tablet is fukking up big time. Its like my screen is way too sensitive. The thing is damn near unuasable at times. I'm strongly considering returning this and waiting for the surface 2 to come back in stock. Anyone else having screen sensitivity issues with their tablet?

Sometimes its gets jumpy, try rebooting it. And make sure you are using the latest updates and drivers.

Hard to be in stock when Microsoft only made about 12 of them.

Return the Dell Venue 8 Pro, this is assuming you actually own one.

how do you update the screen firmware drivers? I've done windowd updatate, but am not sure if the latest firmware drivers updated as well.

Should be on Dell's website.

Also, I have heard that some of the WIndows 8 auto updates have been giving people issues with WiFi

Here a thread discussing this issue. Some had success recalibrating the screen. If you dont want to do that a update should be out soon. Read both pages here:

For all my Dell Venue Pro heads this is a must have: Touch mouse pointer!

One of the drawbacks of having a 8inch full win 8.1 tab is the small elements that is hard to click. This fixes that and works very well with a on screen mouse pad. Why MS did not build this in is dumb as fukk

Its gonna have digitizer support so i can use photoshop on the go. If you dont draw or anything, that venue pro is well worth the price.

That looks nice! BTW this app can be used on any win 8 touchscreen device. Install this on your parents tabs they will love for it. If the next gen of this tab bump the ram to 4Gb and up the res it would be perfect. This tablet puts android and ipads to shame I must admit. Im trying to sell my Nexus 10 now I dont use it anymore.
