    Wanted Android tablet

    Hi, I`m after a cheapish android tab for the other half for Christmas. Does anyone have anything they are looking to part with?

    I was hoping to pay circa £100 but a flexible given the right machine.

    I have an ipad2 and dont want to spend this much on her...I think £100 is a bit OTT but I`m a nice sorta guy

    Thanks for that...could be an option...is the Archos much good? She`ll be using it mainly for facebook, twitter and the web.

    I`d still be happier buying from a trusted DF dude, as tha what online communities are all about...any one selling anything?

    You might struggle to get a decent pad for 100 sheets. You're looking at 150-200 for a touchpad/vega/hannspad.

    Cheap vega tabs do appear on eBay from time to time though.

    Shooooooo-ryuken!

    The vega's do seem to be selling for less and less.
    I missed one on AVForums that just went for £115 delivered.

    I was too slow!

    Have a look at this one, http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/archos...84378-pdt.html it's resistive but, but the best resistive i've ever used and nearly on a par with a capacitive screen.
