Looks similar in specs to my tablet, except the screen size/resolution
and mine runs 2.1 not 2.3.

A lot of people are a bit anti-tablet, but with the right apps and an
external keyboard, they're good little machines.

I thought a 7" 1ghz tablet for £69.99 to your door was pretty good value - you can pay 6 or 7 times that for not much more.
Now if we can just get twice the performance for twice the price....

There was the HP offer recently - £130 for a 32GB pad running WebOS - reflashable to standard android...

I do fancy one of these:

but at round about £400 is more than I want to spend right now.

However, I did try to persuade myself that I needed a tablet recently and couldn't really find any real "must have" type of reason - it would jsut be a toy in the end, so I never bothered. Maybe. Who knows.
