Motorolla Xoom. Had mine for ages now and I think it's a great bit of kit. HUKD had a deal on yesterday - 275 I think. Works great with Diceplayer, and only struggles with 60FPS HD on occasion.

One of the big leccy sheds are doing the asus transformer for 250. I love mine but will probably be upgrading to the padfone in the next few months.

I just bought a Cube U9GT2 from one of the links on the 7" thread.

It took two weeks to arrive, and I've only been playing with it since yesterday evening.

When I first bought it they must have been pretty new out as there weren't many on Ebay but there seem to be a few more sellers advertising them now.

It's not the quickest tablet on the market but I've not paid £400 I paid less than £200 delivered!

I've already got it set up for wireless cloud printing to my Kodak printer and have downloaded loads of games and office based apps.

Which ever you buy make sure it has Android market support or you'll have great difficulty doing things with it.

Hi,

Have an Advent Vega from PC World. Had it over a year now and just upgraded it to Ice Cream Sandwich Android V4.

Now priced at £199.

Great tablet as long as you don't mind doing some minor techy stuff to get the latest versions of the OS.

Regards

Pretty happy with my Arnova 10 G2. There was a big thread on here about tablets a few months ago.

It's not the fastest but it's fast enough and for £150 (Maplin and other online stores) I really don't think you can go wrong. The only thing to note is that you ideally need to do the full android market install to get the best of it :
