    Just a note for those tempted... Prices on tablets are constantly falling and the tech inside them in improving significantly just as quickly. DO NOT... and I repeat myself... DO NOT buy these.
    Right now there is a Samsung Galaxy Tab for $130 which is almost the price of Google's Nexus 7 or Amazon's Kindle Fire HD. An extra $69 gets you way more than double the power and Android 4.1(this comes with 2.2). It may not be an apples to apples comparison as the Nexus isn't a 3G device. If that's what you're really after... then still DO NOT buy these. With M$ about to enter the scene, with what looks to be a very good OS and tablet, price fall and tech growth will only continue (if not accelerate).
    If you are a tech person to whom all of this seems painfully clear... feel free to chime in with your opine. Just remember that a lot of people are impressed with these deals. Like my mother (who just called to ask about these deals), they don't realize that 1 year has made these tablets into paper-weights.

    I agree. In the next few months, we will see a slew of new tablets, some very powerful. Price will drop. Amazon.com just started the ball rolling. Soon, we'll see Windows 8 Tablets, new Android tablets and even an iPad mini. Good time to be consumers.

    Grade 4 and 5 trash without adapters, etc. anyway. They keep having the sales with the grade 4s they can't get rid of.

    Hmm. I wonder if I should buy one of these.
