I have received a box which probably contains a #tangara
initial #tangara thoughts:
- it's smaller than I expected in two dimensions, but also thicker. I've become very used to electronics that are huge thin slabs. feels very solid though. I could throw this at someone and it would probably hurt which is a desirable property for electronics
- volume buttons are really easy to press. that's probably going to be an issue throwing it in a pocket/purse? will wait until it actually happens
- torx screws, my beloved
- I read the whole manual including the boring legal stuff in the back so @jacqueline's effort was not in vain, you're welcome
- ooh that SD card cover thing is very clever. whichever one of you came up with that should be proud
- touchwheel is kind of jumpy and unresponsive. unsure if this is a tangara problem or a me problem, my phone's touchscreen also has trouble with my fingers sometimes, I may just have anti-capacitive fingers. turning the sensitivity way up helps somewhat
- thought the USB was broken, but no, I have found ANOTHER USB CABLE WITHOUT DATA LINES WHY DO I HAVE SO MANY OF THESE
