Tablet: Which should I get

Hi i am considering a Tablet, i'm not sure which to get, but pretty sure it wont be an Apple one.

i have seen an ipad 2 - i think. i'm not all that impressed with the camera or even the screen to be honest. I do have iphone 4 and android device and would prefer something that isn't locked down in terms of what you want to do with it.

Is this nexus 7 and samsung 7/10 inch or whatever any good, anyone know of any pros and cons.

I would be looking at 3g and not just the wifi option. may consider buying out right.

Thanks

    Id suggest heading down to a Tesco Extra or somewhere and having a play. Mine has all the popular tablets on display to try.

    Then when you've found one that you like how it looks and operates, go read up online about it.

    Its very difficult to judge tablets on what people say/reviews/stats. So the best way is to just use them!

    Likewise CPW then sites like Tech Radar for reviews .


    Only con on Nexus 7 is new due for release soon but that may give a pro with existing cheaper .

    No add on sd card problem for some and would suggest min size 32GB .
