Non-contract device for Jibbigo?

I am often asked for device recommendations for Jibbigo. Many users want to take advantage of our app's offline capabilities by running it on a non-contract, non-phone device. The easiest and cheapest option for Apple is the iPod Touch 4th Generation. For Android, it is the Samsung Galaxy Tablet. If you are buying the device just to run Jibbigo, you can get the smallest of either. If you want an Apple Tablet, you may want to try the iPad 2. For an unlocked Android handheld, check out the Galaxy S II (unfortunately, there is nothing like the iPod Touch on Android). Jibbigo has been extensively tested on all these devices. Click below for more information or to purchase, and have fun wherever you're Jibbigoing!
