Which Tablet

[oscarose]

Do you want wifi and 3G? If so, then your choice becomes more limited.

What kind of screen size are you after? I'm not sure that a 7" screen or smaller makes sense, but it depends on what you really want to use it for.

What kind of money are you looking to spend? Are you expecting it to be something that you use a lot, or is it going to be a shiny toy that you get fed up of soon? Are you looking to replace your laptop and use this as something light-weight instead?

My top three to consider (in no particular order) would be:
Asus Transformer Prime
Samsung Galaxy 10.1 Tab
Andypad Pro

Resisted so far but the Andypad Pro looks worth a 2nd look - has some good reviews. Would only have limited uses, hence looking for some reasonable e.g. when away from home for internet access and maybe a few apps.

When is the Kindle Fire available in the UK?

As soon as the networks are in place to support it, and the content is licensed for the UK.

I got one of those Sony S tablets, which is fine. But its not as good as a laptop, doesnt do the things a laptop would do (none of them do) and I find myself using it less and less.

Hmmm, should I put it on Ebay......

Watch out for the Acer Iconia A510 for around £370. Its very good and due to arrive by end of this month. A 3G version, the A511 is scheduled for release but UK launch not yet known.

A full blown HD version of the A510, the A700 (and 3G version A710?) are also due out summertime - ish.

You're wrong. I've bought quite a few of these:

I've got a Transformer Prime. Highly recommended. No problem with AVIs or MKVs. I did download an additional media player because I preferred the controls but didn't need to really. Also the software updating for ICS and Firmware etc is excellent. Not had a single reboot in six weeks of heavy use.

The keyboard and tablet are both of excellent quality, it's replaced my netbook and laptop as my portable PC as well.
