Wow, that's actually a great deal. There are quite a few emerging Tablet PCs below the £150 mark that are really impressing me! May have to grab a couple ;)

You can get equivalent or better specs from chinese tabs at lower costs than this. I have a sanei n90 9.7" ips capacitive screen running ics with an a10 cpu, 1gb ddr, 16gb flash memory, built-in bluetooth, mini hdmi, etc which cost under £140 delivered to uk in 8 days from mcbub.com..there are many sellers in china & it can be a minefield on who to trust, stock availibility, free shipping(& who's shipping) but most of the supporting vendors on this forum seem pretty honest & reliable. I understand uk market has better protection for consumers but at what extra cost? My tab from a uk seller was nearer £200 which to me is too high for what I'm getting. Plus, the chinese vendors support on here I think is better than most uk sellers could give. Unless uk prices fall dramatically I will probably buy chinese for the foreseable future. The value outweighs the risks if you research your products & sellers well enough.
