There are reviews posted if you Google it. Cheap iPad knockoffs often suffer from terrible build quality.

A piece of crap CPU, barely any RAM, 2GB built in data, and the oldest Android OS presently still out there...1.5.

A giant piece of dog crap.

You get what you pay for.

No specs, speculation, and ugly. Another failure...just watch.

Clones are just cheap. It will run slow and you will not be able to view webpages like on the iPad

There are a lot of tablets coming out, but I don't think the majority of them are well built as they rushed the production of them to be available at a similar time as the iPad.

Hope you don't mind me saying what they are, since this is an iPad forum. I have looked at them all, and picked the iPad over them all. These are from a magazine feature called iPad vs The world.

Fusion Garage JooJoo - Linux OS - £320
Archos 9 PCtablet - Windows 7 - £410
ExoPC Slate - Windows 7 - $600
Pegatron Slate - Windows 7 - $tba
MSI WIndPad 100 - Windows 7 - $500
Asus Eee Pad EP121 - Windows 7 - $tba

I doubt these are good, as these OS are not built specifically for touch. Plus. a tablet shouldn't be a laptop replacement IMO. I think Nokia and Intel are building a tablet OS, not sure though.

Android tablets are

Dell Streak
Aigo N700
Google Android Tablet
MSI WindPad 110
ICD Gemeni
ICD Vega

If it is inappropriate for me to post other tablets, just say and I'll delete.

Hey this iRobot 7" Google Android looks sweet , it may not compare in specs to the iPad but still,

It's got micro sd slot as well as USB Jack!

Battery is half of what the iPad is but still

This thing is only 130 bucks, maybe cheaper on ebay !

I still happy with the iPad, but for those who can't afford iPad then this is what they can and proll will buy!

I'm still waiting for one that is actually made by google tho..

There are a lot of tablets coming out that are going to compete fairly with the iPad. The MSI Windpad 110 is one that looks rather nice, running android. The draw of these other devices will be that they will be "free" as opposed to the iPad which has Apple's boot on its neck. They will be able to stream videos over your network shares without running a server. They will have expandable storage and will probably have the internal storage upgradeable. They will have much more memory than the iPad. They almost all have HDMI out and most can play 1080P video. All of them can run widgets and will have a customizable OS, instead of pages of apps like the iPad.

That said, none will be as fluid or well built as the iPad, or have battery life like the iPad.

I have seen numerous posts on many sites regarding Android tablets but I have yet to see one being sold in the U.S.
