    Alright guys well I know u are all going to hate this thread.

    buttttt

    I'm loyal to mac and I love mac and I will only use Mac but I'm also a fan of Android. I mean, they're not crap. And some android tablets can be set up with a Mac (just not through iTunes obviously). So I was wondering if any of you knew of such tablets.
    I know that most Coby Kyros Series tablets can be synced with a Mac along with the newer Archos tablets. Does ANYBODY know of any others that have a capacitive touchscreen (like the iPad) and are under $300????

    plzkthx

    I wouldn't touch any non iPad tablet unless they are less than $300.

    Honeycomb tablets are a work in progress. Toshiba has been quietly dropping prices on their Thrive model if u really want an Android tablet.

    Do you want a 10 inch model? Lots of choices under $300, some under $200 for 7 inch models.

    Thanks for the replies guys. I'll check those out.
    7 inch is good but it would be ideal for a 10 inch. I mainly want it for internet surfing, music reading, reading, and movies. All of which would require a 10'' but a 7'' would do.

    We are thinking about getting our 8 yr old son a tablet for Christmas. He wanted a a Nintendo dsi or 3ds. Mainly for the camera. Though he now has one on our old iPhone that he uses an iPod. He loves our iPads for the games. He also loves to read. So we are thinking about getting him a kindle fire. It isn't much more than a DS.

    We think he would be VERY excited to have his own tablet.
