As stated it was fully charged and I took it to my daughters wedding that afternoon and immediately after filming the service I put the micro SDHC card from my camera into it into it and it played the HD video with no problems at all. I connected my 3 Mobile HUAEWI E1550 3G USB stick and it just worked with no other setting up required. Likewise it found my WiFi router immedately and after entering my network key connected with no problems.
The screen is responsive and very useable. I bought a 16Gb micro SD card and downloaded my Kindle collection onto it and that all works ok.
I still need to learn more about Android to get the most out of it but overall I am very pleased with it. Well worth the money and a great introduction to Android tablet PCs at an affordable price.
Update 8/12/11
Having had the item for about a month now and learnt a bit about Android (Yes I know a month is not long to learn about an operating system but I have been a PC support engineer since Windows 2) I am absolutely delighted with the G7-II. It is fast, uses ordinary web pages as opposed to cut down phone pages, the available apps are good including many free programs. The battery life has improved after a few full discharge and recharge cycles and can easily last through 2 full length films, converted from DVDs on my PC with free DVD to MP4 converters of which there many on the web. The addition of a 16Gb micro SD card means I have 10 films and 25 novels to watch and read anywhere and the included car charger means I always have it with me.
An aside, some other reviewers have said that the on screen keyboard is erratic if used while charging, I bought a case from a supplier on Amazon for around £8.00, to protect it, the case had a built in USB keyboard and this not only cures the problem but turns the device into a mini laptop, (the on screen keyboard can be disabled in settings). Superb 11 out of 10!!
Now for the nitty gritty - The sound quality is not very good and there is hardly any volume to speak of. If my sat-nav (tom tom) can have brilliant sound and in comparison to this device smaller in size,why can't this device have a decent speaker?
The other 'fault',if it is a fault? is that there is a front facing camera. I fail to see what use this is unless you are using an application like Skype where you obviously need it. Its very hit and miss if you need to take a photo of anything facing away from you as you have to guess where the subject is. So it desperately needs another camera on it. (Thank goodness for digital pocket cameras. At least you can use the miniature usb coupling(supplied) to download photos.
Having pointed out the two major niggles the rest of the device is, well, excellent! The on screen keyboard is positive and not over sensitive. The installed apps are sort of ok but the office application will be deleted as I have my own favourite, and the clock settings is hidden below the page and it took me some while to realise that.I tried out the BBC player and while I had buffering problems, it played quite well...BUT THAT SOUND!!!???
Definitely need to use it with earphones,or set up an external speaker,especially at home when your not out and about.
The brouser comes up with default Google, but evrything else you would expect to get from the web is easily accesible. ([...])
Battery life is reasonable....around 3-4 hours in my experience,(charge time 3 hours) but it would have more battery drain if you do a lot of downloading stuff!
Apart from the sound and the camera issues this device is very good. So, if you can come to terms with these niggles I recommend it, purely on the grounds that everything else is nicely designed and it works, more or less straight out of the box.
NOTE: I would have given it 5 stars, but 4 is fair! It could have been a perfect5 but for the sound and camera.
Overall it does what the makers claim it does and I am delighted with it. I do suggest you get a microsd card because you will need it and insert it before you switch the tablet on for the first time so you won't have any trouble. I also downloaded some ebooks (a first one for me) so basically i think I went through most of the features. The manual is easy to understand but if you already own an android phone it's easy going, if not then you will be converted because this takes it up a couple of notches for the better I must say. Well done Cambridge Sciences! You have a new fan!

Ich habe das Star PAD 7SE bestellt. Angekommen ist ein beschädigtes Star PAD 3 mit schwächerem Prozessor und ohne den hier so angepreisenen "1 voll Größe USB Anschluss". Da das Gerät leichte Verschmutzung und Kratzer auf der Rückseite aufweist, glaube ich, dass es sogar bereits in Nutzung war. Alles in Allem eine riesige Sauerei.
Das Gerät geht nun auf alle Fälle zurück.
