Many different Android ones out there, Galaxy Tab is about best of the bunch. For a device of that size, you really need Flash, something iPads lack.

iPad 2, its thinner, lighter & considerably more powerful.

For that price, a netbook is more powerful, more usable.

Generally, Netbooks are shite. Avoid.  Says TB, waiting for his netbook to boot up and stop disk thrashing.

As to which tablet, depends what you want from it.  We have a pair of 32Gb Touchpads here, which we use for when we cant be bothered to boot up a laptop.  Probably not as good as a gayPad, but as they were under £110 each.....

I'm still trying to figure out what you do with a computer without a keyboard, other than watch a few Youtube videos then, when you're bored with that, chuck it in the cupboard with your chocolate kettle and your solar powered torch. ;)
