I tried uninstalling tumblr (assuming it was the problem) but…

Cannot type using Zagg keyboard that came with Ellipsis
Typing on the Zagg keyboard is not possible. The tablet recognizes individual letters at the rate of about 1 per second.

YES, I've restarted, cleared the cache, cleaned…

Jetpack device a total waste!
I was sold this device under the impression that the $75 plan was unlimited, it's not. It isn't even unlimited data at all, it doesn't run slower after the alloted high speed data is used, it doesn't run at all. I paid $75 for a refill card and $50 for the device. The plan lasted one day. ONE DAY, for $75. Ridiculous,…
