Is anyone familiar with tablets? I was thinking of getting one, primarily as an e-book reader where I'd hopefully be able to customise the colour scheme (one of the main snags of the Kindle, as well as its price), but also for other handy things such as the odd bit of browsing. No doubt D would snaffle it for playing poker, assuming that to be possible. I am looking at the very cheap ones, of course. What do you think of this, people in the know? At 8" it's a little bigger than the cheaper 7", 800 x 600 instead of 800 x 480, but still a good bit cheaper than the 10" ones, which are beyond my budget. Screen's not brilliant, though, it sounds.
P.S. I think I may be better off just grabbing a used netbook, as long as it works reasonably well. Does anyone happen to have one they're not using? And is there anyone using Linux or Windows CE who could check for me that you'd be able to change the background colour when reading text documents?
P.P.S. And now I am back to contemplating tablets, probably this one. Thoughts, anyone?
