Hi,
After the discussion about cheap android tablet in the list, I got
interested and ordered a M001 tablet from the internet link provided by
one of you.
After a wait of about a month it arrived yesterday, the price was $109
and I had to pay a duty of Rs.766 to the postman.
I now can not configure internet proxy setting on the device. Though
through google search I have been getting some instructions, but they do
not match the menus on my device. It runs kernel
2.6.29-00236-g4f8dbbb-dirty, build number 1.9.1 and firmware version 1.6.
I would be grateful if some one can give pointers to solve my problem.
Thanks and regards.

There's a bug filed on their issue tracker which has been open for a
long time which says that android cannot be used through an
authenticating proxy.
Also, this method works only in Android 1.6 from what I read. For the
newer version you need to store this value in a sqlite database file.

if you have a terminal you can use bash environment variable using
setenv to http_proxy=proxy:portnum

I have been trying to get a terminal on the tablet but could not. Can
you suggest w to get a terminal?
Google search led me to some solution modifying sqlite databases, but
that too used a terminal.
Thanks and regards.

There are terminal apps that you can get from android market.
One such example

But do remember, there's no bash in there. It uses busybox. :)
