hi - hoping to get some ideas and thoughts on buying a tablet-
budget constraints mean less than £300, 8" ok, main thoughts for use at the mo' are plugging into TV (so need hdmi) and plugging USB in so can watch films etc, listen to music etc, also to plug in ext hard drive (reasons as before), no doubt once having played around will want more...games etc...(whilst dossing on sofa) who knows?
Went to buy archos 80 g9 yesterday but all sold out (yes i know are on pcw website) but now i've seen 'turbo' version with 250 gb hdd, (only 512 ram? -conflicting info on sites - do i need more?) what should i consider - sdd / hdd?, acer iconia and toshiba thrive sound ok from reviews are they contenders? any others?, a bit confused by usb slave /host - do they all work with usb? , oh so many questions! - should i hang on a while and see what comes out in next few weeks but do i risk missing a 'good un' (or 'ok average' at least)
Archos seem to fit the bill but would welcome others' thoughts...driving myself crazy reading reviews etc of all and likely that paracetamol will be the only tablet needed if i carry on.
sorry its a long question, hopefully someone will be able to offer some suggestions, recommendations or sanity - many thanks
