I don't know in that price range but the nexus 10 is great and it has hdmi.

Also I got an android on a stick device that connects to the tv. I have xbmc there and it works great. They are about 60 EUR on eBay, quad core and 2gb ram.

Don't know if this reply is too late or not but I would recommend this: http://www.did.ie/gotab-10-android-internet-tablet-gbt10bk-prd
I have one myself now - it's grand 10" and HDMI output (you'll need micro HDMI adaptor though - got one on amazon ~ 89p, does the job grand). Great for the money.

can I just bump this thread guys... not sure if the GoTab would suit as the reviews dont seem to be to positive. My budget can stretch to 200€ and to verify that im looking for wifi capability, hdmi port (for hooking up to LCD in sitting room) and keyboard attachment capability.
Im hoping to get it in the next 3-4 days.
Thanks in advance
