I am considering getting an Android tablet at some point.

My primary use for such a tablet would be as an e-reader.

At first I was considering Kindle but I´d never gotten around to getting one, and this was before Ipad hype.

Now when you look for e-reader/tablets it´s all Ipad Ipad Ipad. I effin hate Apple due bad experience with ipods.

I am not going to start flaming apple or anything, let´s just say I´m not getting an Ipad.

The positive about it though, at least I think, is the screen size.

Seems good for e-reading and it give the option to do other stuff with it also.

And I´ve already tried to use my HTC Desire as an e-reader, not exactly a pleasant experience.

So I am looking for a tablet with the same screen size as Ipad, but powered by Android.

And I found this Android 2.1 Tablet PC

http://www.deleted.html 7 inch touch screen, wifi Google Android Market, Google Android 2.1, 3D graphics acceleration / Gravity Sensor GAME, ARM 11 high processor, all these attract me. The high light of this Android tablet is 1080P Full HD video playback while Apple ipad can’t do.

Should I set my sights on this tablet? or continue looking?

Hi

I think if you want the same size screen as the iPad, then this one is too small. I have just bought a 10 inch Advent Vega, having looked at the smaller 7 inch tablets. Reason I didn't go for the smaller screen is a) it's not really so much larger than my Samsung Galaxy (4 inch) - which is great for reading ebooks BTW - and :huh: I want the better options with tabbed browsing - more on screen and therefore more suited to what I am going to do (a lot of browsing).

I also wanted the capacitive touch screen, not resistive (wiki that if you need to know more!)

Not sure if this helps.
