Hi,
Yep, I'm still trying to make a decision...
xaueious suggested I consider the Vega, and looking over reviews of that, it's a serious choice. For a little less I can get the Archos 70, and I confess that for portability I like the thought of a 7" screen over the 10.1" Vega.
My main requirements are:
Ability to handle Microsoft Office documents and PDFs
Decent battery life when working with documents (5+ hours, ideally)
Rotational sensor
I like the fact that by upping my original budget a bit, I'm now looking at capacative, rather than resistive screens, although some of the reviews of the Vega screen are a little negative. Is the lack of Android Marketplace on the Archos a real problem (I understand there's a simple workaround for that problem with the Vega).
As always, thanks in advance for any help, and I'll reitterate my thanks for those who've already patiently helped out this newbie.
Best (and all the best for the coming New Year),
Mike
