After watching the youtube product demo for the aurora, one may be skeptical about whether or not to get one.

From the look of it, the response look rather laggy as compare to the Elf demo or is the camera filming it is lagging. :).

Brings one to wonder getting Elf is the safer bet. :)
N7a against elf is only the ram while elf vs aurora is the screen....some firmware difference..an ips screen cant lag hardware...aurora shd be the 'top notch a10 devices...ips + 1G ram.

Elf - 1024 * 600
Aurora - 1024 * 600 IPS

the mali gpu bundle with the A8 cortex on the allwinner A10 is not sufficient (video ram and frequency insufficient) to handle 1024 * 600,
thus the lagginess. Can be seen on different reveiw sites on youtube
for ainol elf and aurora.

Perhaps using antutu or quad to test...cpu, gpu, 3d etc...will need someone with all devices w/o optimise script

Wait is over for Aurora, I manage to order Aurora 16GB ver last week on 17 Jan. Shipped & received on 26 Jan, today.

Overall this one is much thinner and smaller than Novo 7A. The IPS panel display is much much better with clearer, sharper & vibrant colour display. I can say "Wow"...

However, i didnt manage to get the white version.

Come with preloaded ics 4.0.1 FW. Going to flash it with official ics 4.0.3 FW.

However, do anyone know the scripts link for full Market?

Steven?

I'm a tad bit confused, and quite noob at this, so got to ask...

Regarding the Aurora, if you don't root and whatnot, won't be able to access the android market?

P.S. Is ICS 4.0.3 easily found?

Don't think so. I read the specs of aurora with elf. Identical except one is IPS n elf is not.

Elf confirm no back camera. Only front
