cannot confirm that at all, how weird. The casing feels very solid. It felt much better finished than the asus, I did not like at all the weight repartition in the xoom which kept balancing on the right side. I have not had yet a Galaxy tab in my hands, but I can compare to an ipad 1 which we own and the casing does not feel cheaper to me on the acer at all. Maybe with the ipad 2.

display is indeed not the best of its class on the acer, but more than enough for my needs, videos in hd are playing perfectly fine, games might not be great (I am not a player)

Mine is not sluggish AT ALL. My neighbour got an asus and we compared yesterday, my acer was indeed quicker since it got the update to 3.1 which the asus had too btw. My neighbour now wants to exchange his asus for an acer, he was green when he realised that plus the specs (2Usbs + micro SD) of the acer

I like it. it is certainly not the best, but I enjoy the specs and the device, so for me it was a good decision, I don't think it is outclassed nor the best, but it is quite good and probably a good budget decision for many users.
