| Regular iPad starts at $279 refurbished. I thought they would be high but that is outrageous, should have realized that when they charge $170 for a used iPod touch. It really makes me wonder why all of the apple geeks pay so much for a product that is not worth the price.

| I got a Polaroid 7 inch tablet at Big Lots for $89 because I didnt know if I would really use it even if I had it (Paid $200 for a Palm Pilot 10 years ago that just sat collecting dust). I have to say its a nice little device for no more than I paid for it. I did have to sideload the android app store (it comes with the amazon store on it) but there are instructions all over the internet for that. My el-cheapo tablet excels as an e-reader too.

| I've been eyeballing the 7" Android tablets. They're going to be $49 on Black Friday everywhere that I've seen. I want one and my son wants one. I really wish that I knew someone with one so I could see if it's worth the money. |

| Thanks for the heads up. I may buy my son the cheaper one this year. If it's crap then we'll just save that for one of the younger kids and get him a better one next year. |
