The FT has a paywall

Reuters doesn't

Love the quote though

Sebastian James, CEO of Dixons Retail, Europe's second biggest electricals retailer, said last month that although there is a market in Britain for cheap, basic tablets, consumers were often left disappointed by purchases.

"We get a lot back because people use them and they say 'no, what I wanted was an iPad' and they are not," he told Reuters.

"There's a reason why an iPad is more expensive, it's just better."

Yes of course it's better than a €100 tablet, duh!

I bought a 10" tablet and it runs so slowly. Try to return it to Argos, no dice waste of money

I'd be interested in seeing feedback on these. I'm in the market for 2 tablets and they just might suit !

100 sterling and 150 euro:mad:

If i buy it will be in the North !!! Even with the exchange i'll save about 30 quid !

If youre buying in the North id stump up the extra for Tescos Hudl over the Argos one everytime. Beats it hands down in pretty much every way
