Cheap Tablet option

Pablo_

I Know little to nothing about tablets but wondering if i buy cheap tablet like this,

http://www.amazon.co.uk/TABTRONICS-C...8267900&sr=1-2

and then get a broadband dongle ( e.g. o2), will i be able just to check email, look up a few things on internet, and look up bit of music (when plugged in to charger for music) .... It's just for home or near wifi points and to be not totally out of touch.
I can't be bothered spending money on laptop ??

Any info appreciated


( like i still play fifa 2006 on a ps2 ..... )

I wouldn't pay more than 50 quid for it, to be honest. It's very much a bottom of the barrel option.

cheers pickarooney. Found out its compatible with nothing anyway so it would be just an expensive calculator

Is it any good or would be a waste of money ??????

It's not a bad machine. The viewing angle of the screen is poor and it's not the fastest in the world but 150 is not a bad price for it at all. Capacitive screens don't come much cheaper.

Cheap tablet, basically what the link shows is one of them, burning, while charging, so be careful !

Seems a fantastic price for the Archos 101, am I missing something?
