 Update: Image of the M70003 main board
Often can be found as apad, epad, or simply generic android tablet, these low cost devices provide basic functionality. I purchased this unit to use as a basic e-reader and web browser during travel time. This particular unit is sold as the M70003 Series and can be found for around 80 dollars as of late 2010.
To the left you can see the main screen. At the top you have a toolbar with some basic information, including wireless signal strength, battery life, and the time. The toolbar also functions as quick access to the home screen. You can also change the screen orientation from this toolbar if you have the gravity sensor disabled. From my experience with this device the gravity sensor did not seem to work very well under any circumstance, randomly switching the screen orientation and changing songs with the slightest movement. I would recommend disabling it.
At the bottom of the screen you will see a Mac style doc to access email, the web browser, your calendar, contacts, and settings. E-mail is fairly straight forward and easy to use. The web browser included works well, again you will find that this is not the fastest experience. Calendar and contacts are also very simple to use, but I found that it will not sync with your Google account information. Hopefully this will be fixed with the next release.
The App Market for this device is terrible. Other then a calculator you will be hard pressed to find anything useful. You can still run most apps designed for Android 1.6, though most will not be found in the App Market. Instead you will need to search online for the individual .apk installation files for the programs you wish to install.
 The included PDF reader is very cumbersome. Instead, I recommend purchasing RepliGo, it runs very smoothly. Each page takes only a few seconds to load and had no issues loading larger documents. very easy to use. I also found the music and video players were not very useful. You will only be able to play low resolution mpeg and flv video files smoothly on this device. MP4 and higher quality video files will attempt to play but are not very watchable. The included music player is very difficult to navigate and can be slow at times. Instead I would recommend bTunes. It will run nicely as an mp3 player. I did find however that listening to music while working on other tasks significantly slowed the system down, and often caused bTunes to stop completely. Viewing images on the device is simple. The size of this device is about the size of a picture frame, and could be used as such. Actually, the most interesting application I found on this device goes by the name of Magic Album. It is simply a large digital clock which displays the date and weather forecast. Also allowing you to set alarm times, brightness and giving you quick access to your e-mail (does not work, takes you to photos for some reason), music, and photos. It disables any standby settings you may have and keeps the screen on as long as it is running.In terms of performance it is far behind the competition. But for the low price this device can make a very useful travel companion.

Trying to connect a 3g network help plz?
These things are pure junk. I just bought one a couple weeks ago and all it wants to do now is constantly take screen shots. You can’t do anything with it. Before it started doing that the app market is a complete and utter joke. Trust me you get what you pay for and if you want something that actually works spend the money.
