Rik, Any chance of a link to one that has the case/keyboard with it?
I can only find ones without.

I got the 7-8" version from fleabay for similar money. I was surprised at how well it works.

You often find these lower priced tablets don't have access to the play store,

The cheep tablets are mostly for the Chinese home market, and run the "China Safe" version of Droid, unless your one of the large OEM's and produce that tablet strictly for export you can find yourself in big trouble.

No I haven't but it's a different animal- that's a tablet based computer (and expensive). I've not used any of the latest Win 8/RT systems but the reviews talk about the OS in the same way they spoke about Vista.

The biggest moan about 8 seems to be the loss of the Start button, can't understand that really as I rarely use it and there are little programmes that restore it in 8 if your one of the luddites who can't live without it. I think a lot of folk can't cope with change, personally I like the new metro UI, its fresh, its 'different' and works just as well with mouse/keyboard as it does a touch screen. Boot times are a little faster than 7. Well worth taking advantage of the lose price upgrade, you can always go back to 7.
