While taking a holiday from LOS this Christmas and New Years, I bought the wife and I an Acer 10.1", touch screen, 16 gb, Iconia Android Tablet on sale at Best Buy for about $229. That's about 7,000 tb. A good price in my book.

I'm still familiarizing myself with it's operational capability and how exactly I'll want to use it but for the price I paid, thought it a rather good deal to keep up with the technology.

I sure like the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7". It's about 2 years old and works fine it's a little clunky compared to the newer 7.7 version which is slicker than snot.
I use the portable wifi hotspot feature all the time and use the Lenovo netbook for more serious keyboard work.

Samsung and Lenovo build some really high quality hardware IME.

^ What's with these Android updates/upgrades? Do you buy them or just hit the update button in settings and it D/Ls it?

**English Noodles** · 15-01-2013, 11:14 AM

Just tap the bottom right corner of the screen and then the software update option.

Apple iPads are best as a tabled PC.. Apple products have different technology in their every version of his products so that's why it is best to use..

It's my oldest boy's bidet soon. I've had a look around and the 7" Galaxy2 looks like the only real contender in the 8k area.

I did see the Iconia and it was the minimum RAM spec that made me look at the Galaxy. We just got stung a little on buying an under-RAMed phone which won't DL Apps that are written for phones with more RAM. I don't want the kid whining that he can't DL fucking Angry Birds or some other 'must have' game.

**Chairman Mao** · 29-01-2013, 08:53 PM

Don't these also often have less RAM than advertised?
