I realize that the Archos 14 Vision is of this form-factor. But I would very much prefer an Android-based OS. I don't need video. In fact I would prefer it not. Just want a solid, but tiny, Wifi device with a good OS. I might even consider an iPod Nano if it had iOS and wifi access.
I'm thinking about getting my mom a basic tablet that won't break the bank. She'll be using it only for basic websurfing, facebook (yes, my mom is an avid facebook user - surprisingly more active on the site than me O_O), watching videos and Skype.
With those uses in mind, does the A100 fit the bill? Or are there any other tablets you might suggest in its stead?

My HTC Flyer tablet is en route to me at this writing. The HTC forum might indicate that people have upgraded the Flyer tablet to Honeycomb. Is that upgrade to 3.0 HC. advisable?
I can't type on touchscreens to save my life. I'm willing to pay more for a slider with decent hardware, but they all seem to have the guts of 5 year old phones. I have a Motorola Flipside with 2.2 and I'm ready to throw it out the window. I can't even update any apps any more because it gives me constant out of space errors with its tiny 256 MB RAM x 512 MB, fixed focus, general slowness, and occasional unresponsiveness. I looked at the specs for the LG Optimus Slider, but it's specs don't seem...

When it comes to the tablet version of ICS, what are the pending benefits? It just seems like there's some new fonts and some gestures, but other than that it's pretty much like Honeycomb. Are they promising performance increases? Better touch responsiveness?
I'd love something that already has a docking/keyboard option available (as an accessory, of course). I can go up to $400US, but cheaper is fine, too. :D
I just got a tablet for school and I have an android phone and i wanted to find a way to use the phone as a keyboard for the tablet. I know theres a way to use an android phone as a keyboard for a PC but cant find one for a tablet. any help?
I've got some Christmas cash that I've saved in order to purchase a 10.1" Android tablet. I've had my eye on the Asus Transformer (TF101), the Motorola Xoom Family Edition, and perhaps the Sony tablet. Leaning heavily toward the Transformer due to it's expandability and Asus's promise of upgrading to ICS. However, I'm wondering if prices might be on the verge of coming down and perhaps I could be rewarded by having some patience. I'm only looking in the sub-$400+/- arena with a limited budget...
I have an Acer Iconia A500. Today my browser (default browser) lost all the book marks and reset them to default. Directv app lost login as did netflix app. I had also set wifi to stay on when plugged in, it also got changed. I haven't gone to every setting that I had changed yet, so don't know what else was reset. Btw, battery has not died. It was at 32% when I turned it on.

It is time for me to upgrade my smartphone. I have a Palm Pre Plus. I really like WebOs. I live in a rural area, but visit areas that have 4g. Are 4g phones more fast in areas that have only 1g or 3g service. I will stay with Verizon. Suggestions, please. I have a Kindle Fire, so am fam. with that form of Android.
I was reading up on people's thoughts on the Carrier IQ software (http://gdgt.com/question/android-users-are-you-wo... and I was mildly concerned. Before I started freaking out, I wanted to know how can I find out if this is actually on my device (Droid X)?
