    Im looking to buy a tablet for around the €150 mark. I lost out on the HP Touchpad fire sale.

    Would THIS be any good?


    Will be using it for browsing and watching movies.
    Can I put different roms on this?

    Cheers

    To be honest for that kinda money you could probably get something a bit better- i picked up an arnova 10 g2 8gb in HMV for €169. Specs here http://arnovatech.com/products/g2/arn_10/index.html?country=ua&lang=en

    I'd be wary of this one, currently runs Gingerbread, would have expected an upgrade to Honeycomb by this stage and is most likely that it wont support Ice Cream Sandwich which means its already outdated (which is probably why its 50% off the RRP).

    If you think it has everything you need and you won't miss out on any of the extra functionality (and increased performance) that Honeycomb or ICS offers it looks like an ok tablet. If however you can spend about €100 more you could look at the Archos 80 G9 which currently runs Honeycomb and has been confirmed will get ICS early 2012.
