As for a 7" Android tablet... well, you'll have to spend more than $300 to get one which is decent, which means you may as well splurge for a real 10" Android Tablet. The Iconia A100 didn't impress me with its battery life or screen; and for an extra $100, I could go out and get an Asus Transformer which is far better. The Kobo Vox, once they get all the firmware bugs out, isn't a bad 'starter' tablet - especially not with that lovely screen it's got.

Why would someone looking for a 7" tablet drop $400 to buy the 10" Asus Transformer? The Samsung galaxy tab 7.0 Plus is available right now on Amazon for the same price....
