Do we have any self proclaimed Tablet experts in the house?

Yes, It's Hardware is great for the price... software is meh but changeable And the support seems ok (Better than that Archos one)... I don't recommend anything but Capacitive Just remember to buy a MicroSD card...

Excellent! I should already have a spare card laying around as it goes.

 

I'll ask around for a few more opinions and see how I feel about it tomorrow

Hardware side it seems pretty decent but... the screen Sure its Capacitive but the resolution is low, this won't make a good video experience. On the plus side you won't need much storage if you re-encode your videos to match.

 

If you can you need to check out some 7" tablets in person especially at that resolution.

 

A tablet is a media consumption device, it needs to be good the reading/watching/listening. The listening can sort of justify you getting a decent set of headphones given the size we can accept this as headphones aren't a large expense but if adding a better display was required!

 

You're going to be looking at this a lot. Its not a phone where you put it in your pocket and occassionally play with a few apps, because you know you bought a phone not a mini TV.

I decided I'd get the tablet I linked first. It seems like a nice little buy, it'll do most (if not all) of the things I want it to do, and it's inexpensive Not only that but the seller has 4,000 ratings averaging 4.8. It looks like a nice little performer. However it wont arrive for another week or two because it's currently out of stock. Wish me luck!
