Help choosing a CHEAP tablet!

Tesco Hudl?

Spec seems pretty decent for the price, build quality I'm not so sure about though

I'll take a look.

Why would you need a tablet when working on the car?

Personally, I wouldn't bother, I find they just cause frustration. Some are probably okay, but just spend a bit more and get a Nexus 7 IMO. I bought a Samsung Tab 7 and wished I'd gone with a Nexus, it was disappointing.

Theres usually always a problem when doing a major job on a car and usually end up having to look something up, tablet could be ideal for that.

Nexus 7 is £160 new, but in budget if I go second hand so I'll read up on them! Thanks.

Personally, I think the performance of a cheap tab just makes them frustrating to use.. something like a Gen 1 Nexus 7 will probably be the best you can get for your money

I can see where your coming from, now I'm used to the SSD on the PC everything seems painfully slow already..

A cheap tablet will just wind you up. I got given a Arnova 9g2 for Christmas and although im grateful for it, the wifi signal is weak and drops out/ it locks up a lot/when typing the letters appear a couple of seconds after typing and so on. My phone (HTC Desire HD) is faster than it but the screen of the tablet is much nicer for lounging in bed watching something or going on the forum.
in terms of processing power go for something more than a single 1ghz and 512mb ram otherwise its just not worth your time.

Same as Danny mentioned, note taken, don't buy cheap & new, buy cheap & used.
