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.gindart.com/buy/7-google-androi...pad-p-1370.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?

Hope you can help.

Kind Regards

I really don't know too much about Android tablets, but I have spent the last couple of weeks looking around.

On eBay there are a huge number of noname tablets just like the one in your link, and they can be picked up really cheaply.

I decided I wanted a 10" Android 2.2 rather than 2.1 and that cut the numbers down a little. I also read a bad review of the ZT-180 processor (the one in your link is a different processor). It seems most of the processors an ebay are ZT-180. So that cut my choice down again. And then I decided I wanted to buy a device with a know name like Archos, ZTE or Advent. That way I could at least read a review before I bought the device.

So at the start of my little journey I had thousands of tablet to pick from but at the end it was just a couple.

If you are looking for a eReader then the quality of the screen is everything. My recommendation is you look at reviews to find one that says the device has a great screen.

I know you do not want an Ipad, but the original ones are being sold off really cheaply, especially the refurbished ones from Apple. They have great screens.

My Advent Vega also has a good screen, but I think it is only sold in the UK under that name.

Although I have a good Android tablet I think I will still buy a Kindle.
