7" tablet - anything cheap, cheerful and ACCEPTABLE around?

Can probably pick up a near new /refurb 64gb playbook for around £60. Even though it won't ever get the new BB10, for actual browsing its better than any android device I've used, partly because the browser is really good, supports 'proper' websites, not just mobile, and flash actually works, unlike the hack you need to do on android. The battery life is excellent too, unlike many of the crap £60 android tabs.

However, if you could push to the nexus, I would get that. Its still supported for a start.

I bought a thing called a "Hi Pad" from a market trader in the US just to see what you get for $40. It actually works very well and I use it more often than my £200+ Motorola Xoom.

Try the Acer Iconia B1, works a treat for surfing and emailing. Check out HUKD, there have been a number of good deals on it lately.

Any particular model of the Iconia B1?

The 8GB version works fine for me. Acer were offering £20 cashback, but unfortunately it looks as though that ended a few days ago, so it's not quite as an attractive deal as it was. Mine was around £55, which I thought was excellent value.
