I'm looking for a nice and cheap (< $300) Android tablet. I'm a programmer so I would like to be able to program apps and load them.

I have seen there is a lot of Android tablets in the USA market, but most of the reviews are not very kind with them. Two exceptions to these bad reviews are the Cruz Tablet and the Nook Color. Maybe (and probably) I'm mistaken so if anybody knows any other good tablet, please post the name.

Currently, the Cruz Tablet and Nook Color have the same price (at least in the USA), but I don't know if after Thanksgiving the Cruz will be again at $299.

B&N has a developer program (I'm already registered but have not received the promised info about where to download the SDK and docs). Anybody knows about the Cruz Tablet?

What about screen? Both have the same quality? glare, etc?
