Wanting to buy cheapo tablets ?

I've been looking onthe bay of E for 3 x Tablets... 2 would be for DD'2's 11 and 6 and 1 for me. We only ever use this PC for surfing. So was thinking of replacing with Tablets to save arguments...

Looking to spend £50 on each would any of these be any good ?

Thanks for your help x

    From experience, I'd avoid these - mainly because of the resistive screens. My partner had one and it really was painful to use. She ended up sending it back.
    I have a capacitive screen model - you pay a bit more, but worth it in the long run.

    Some of the advertisers don't mention the screen type, but at that price point, presume it's resistive unless it actually says otherwise!
  • Have a look here http://www.futeko.com/products/TAB010.php

    Or check over on Hotukdeals as tablets come up quite regularly.

    Well 23n1th's recommendation in this thread is now back at Ebuyer on pre-order for £85 all-in, and it now ships with the latest version of Android, so you don't even have to DIY upgrade now.

    I should add that I've not tried it personally, but spec seems reasonable for the money if 7" is big enough.
