    OK, if you want the best you can afford, then how much can you afford?
    1. Have you tried to Google the answer?
    2. If you were in the other person's shoes, how would you react?
    3. Do you want a quick answer or better understanding?

    If you could push to £195 i would recommend the Google Nexus 7.

    IF NOT...

    I would say the Asus MeMO Pad HD 7 .. at only £130
