Well, I'd been threatening to do it for a while, and today I could finally resist no longer. So I am now the proud owner of an elonex etouch 1000et Android tablet
Picked up second hand from CEX, the first thing I found out when I got it home was that it had an 8GB microSD card in it - bonus! The second thing I did was to find instructions for updating to froyo, a process which took all of 10 minutes. So I'm now up and running with pretty much everything I could want (except flash support currently, although elonex are meant to be working on this), and typing this update from my PS2 wireless keyboard (which is plugged in using a PS2 - USB adapter and would also give me a mouse if I wanted it!). What with google docs being released for Android and this thing being pre-loaded with an office suite which appears to be compatible with MS Office, I'm feeling very smug
Total cost of my entry into the tablet market? £90
Screen is bright and clear, I've not put any music through it yet but the system sounds come through the stereo speakers bright and clear, and the device is very responsive - including the resistive touch screen (after trying it out in the shop I was surpised to find that it was resistive when checking the specs once I'd got it home). All in all I'm dead chuffed
