So I missed out on the WOOT deal, but I'm starting to consider an eDge purchase again. The best prices I see are on eBay for a 7" Pocket eDge - which is the one I am considering.

I am mainly interested in browsing, reading is secondary, and I might use some specail apps - for example I play guitar and would like to install a program for tuning a guitar. Moneywise I want to stay under $300. I already have a netbook - and that was around $325.

The obvious downside is that Entourage is defunct. So no support from the manufacturer. If I buy from eBay about a 7 day return is about the best "warranty" I can find.

So what do you eDge owners think? Really it is down to the eDge or the Archos 70 Internet Tablet - and the Archose is about $100 more.

Thoughts?
