Been looking for a couple of days and this the cheapest I've saw it after a 50 pound price drop. Free click and collect.

£190 squid for a tablet that'll be slow in about a year after having had its update to kill features in ios xx. This should be around the £120 range. Cold from me... And it's 16gb. Definitely over priced.

I have an iPad 2 that isn't slow, hasn't been forgotten and hasn't had anything removed in any subsequent updates over the years.... Every time an apple product is posted all the morons come out to convince others why they don't need them without having one single idea of anybody's requirements.

I would rather buy from a reputable seller like Argos and pay slightly more.

email and see if they'll price match. If not, buy from here then return the new one back for your first purchase!

You can find it on ebay £10-£20 cheaper. Brand new.

Bloody hell, can someone advise on what to buy for a tablet tomorrow given that my sodding Playbook is about as effective as a one legged man in an **** kicking contest and its going to go flying out of the window shortly?

Agreed. It's an 8-inch tablet with 1GB of RAM and a 1.3GHz dual-core processor that's been out for over 2 years - it's worth more like £140, especially as there is an iPad Mini 3 out. But of course, you pay for the Apple badge.
I do think iPads function well for their specs however.
I'll stick with my Samsung Galaxy Tab S though (and this is coming from an iPad owner), more power, more flexibility, storage expandable..

Yeah I'm regretting buying my 16gb iPad 2's 5 or so years ago. The kids so complain about them being slow. Oh wait no they don't they love them still. So stop taking absolute rubbish

apple are still selling these on their site, and offer an optional 2 year warranty. JL are also offering 2 year warranty. It's hard to know what Apple will do, we're all just guessing, but I'd be willing to wager that support for these will continue for 2 years.

Well, it's not legal in the UK. For sure.

Depends what you want it to do? if you want to watch films on it ie DivX, Avi's etc then stay away from Apple, Android will drag and drop movies and play them natively without conversion add in USB on the go, MicroSD, true 16:9 screen ratio/resolution support then they are leagues ahead of Apple on the movie front.
However if you want simplicity then maybe Apple would suit better?

All I want a tablet for mainly is messing around on the Internet on the sofa whilst the missus watches her brollocks on the TV, playing music whilst I'm getting up (which the Playbook is decent for btw - great speakers) and maybe the occasional film on train or something. Tried the HUDL but its ability to charge buggered up within a month.
