Nah, Advent Vega. A lot cheaper and has Tegra 2, which pretty much blows everything else out the water.
Recommend a Gadget for around £400

4 cans of special brew and a funnel.
Was thinking of the Viewsonic 10"

Best "I want to waste £400" thread ever.
Pretty much that's it in a nutshell.

It’s one of the first out, reviews give it an average rating. I would wait towards the end of the 1st quarter of 2011 as there will be quite a lot of new tablets arriving included the ASUS Eee Pad/Slate and there will probably be a new iPad. Unless you want to be an early adopter wait a few months because they will be much better than the Viewsonic.

It's very nice and now going for £399 at CPW.

I have the latest software on mine and I can't see how it could be any more responsive.
Another vote for the Galaxy Tab - more useful and portable than an iPad, more portable and much better quality than the Vega.
I have the Galaxy S - same as the Tab with a smaller screen. Sort of the iPhone to the iPad relationship.
I'm sure it's great, but Android isn't designed for tablets yet until 3.0. When that hits iPad killers should appear.
Surprised to hear such good reports of the Tab. I thought Samsung were a bit premature with it and should have waited, but maybe not!

If you want something to use when sitting on your sofa then an iPad or laptop...
If you want something to use when out and about/on the train then a Galaxy Tab...
If you want something to use when out and about instead of a laptop for proper work then a Windows 7 tablet.

I've heard the 'android isnt ready for tablets yet' but I'd not want to read a book on my Desire with Kindle after reading a lot on the Tab and I love playing games/emulators on the tab with a big screen. Also web browsing is a lot better than on the Desire. iPlayer is much bigger and more responsive.
Oh, and unlike the iPad I can slip it in my coat pocket when i'm going on the train to watch football or something.

Not long back from a Holiday and already have another booked for April. Looking for a gadget or a new toy.
Think I'll wait and see what new tablets come out in the new year, I think it will be a good year for tablets and hopefully show the Ipad up for what it is. Overpriced Hype.
