I have the Lenovo too and I use it for watching on-board videos. It's great for that and the price is great. But the Wifi is so flaky it's fairly useless for general tablet use. I considered returning it but I really bought it with those videos in mind and it's superb for that use so decided to keep it.

I also have the Galaxy Tab S, bought for the same reason, but as was stated earlier in this thread, those buttons are terribly inconvenient and I rarely use it. I've tried and tried to get used to it. It's an expensive tablet and it took me longer than the return period to decide I wasn't going to get used to it. It's a shame because without those buttons it would be the perfect tablet. Everything else about it is excellent.

I enjoy drawing although I'm very much an amateur and I have an 8" Asus Windows tablet with a digital stylus. It's fairly clumsy as tablet styluses go, I think. It seems to have all the problems the video reviews discuss among tablets with a stylus. But it's still kind of great to draw with. I'd like to get a 10" tablet for this, or even larger, but I have to save up for these devices and it takes a while and I'm saving for a new laptop first. But down the road....

Actually that 10" Asus with the optional stylus was one I hadn't known about and it's price is something I could just about manage. I do wish it had a higher resolution screen but that's not a showstopper, I guess. I'll have to read up on it a bit.
