I also bought one of these (SGP5) a month or so ago, from Cowboom, and love it too.
I use it as a replacement for my PDA, since it's really just a miniature Android tablet, like blossom says. I now keep my calendar and reminders on it, and take short notes on it, and have my music on it (and Shazam for when I hear those unknown songs!), and most of my ebooks, and my
Economist esubscription, and occasionally go on the Internet (wi-fi only), and and and...
I had shifted over to using my phone for all of that, but I wanted something a bit bigger so I could also read my scanned ebooks as .pdf files without having to go through the hassle of OCR-ing and proofing. The SGP5 is just big enough that I can do that with most of my scans, once I've cropped them, which is a lot easier than OCR-ing and proofing. And having had carpal tunnel syndrome once a long time ago, I wanted something smaller than my Tab 7 Plus, which gets heavy to hold during long reading sessions. And I found an unexpected side-benefit too - now I don't have to worry about burning the battery on my phone on those rare occasions when I get a chance to read a lot during the day.
I definitely recommend this if you're in the market for a "small-ish tablet".
