Well, I have two kids and there are times when we do view things together. I'm also guilty of the "Look at this honey!" and share things on the internet. I don't mind narrow viewing angles as long as they are reasonable. I remember playing with the Viewsonic Tablet, and I could barely move it before the image got dark, particularly in portrait mode (my preferred orientation). The Iconia and the Vizio tablet are not really bad. Actually, it was a tough decision. The Iconia lost out on price and battery life, the Vizio on form factor (but just barely).

Overall, I think I made the right choice with the Galaxy Tab. I love the screen on it and the form factor. I wanted an Android upgrade from my Pandigital Novel, and the Galaxy Tab certainly is a huge upgrade.

Part of me wonders if I will regret not holding out for the Lenovo (IPS screen + 2.3) but, I think what I got will compare favorably. I love the screen on the Galaxy Tab (color saturation, brightness, viewing angles) so I can't complain there. Also, there's a chance that Verizon will eventually get around to updating to 2.3 (Sprint has already).

Anyhow, I'm back in the Android club
