Which Android Tablet would you get?

Similar to my same question in the EVO subforum, but I wanted a wider opinion as well. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-evo-4g...d-you-get.html

As an Android Device owner, which of the existing (or soon to be released) Android Tablets would you considering buying?

Personally I had no real idea or desire to look into them until I saw some postings about rooting the B&N Nook Color.. (all it's fault I tell you!)

So now I have gotten to back-tracking on other devices. After having my EVO and practically never using my PC/laptop anymore. A tablet seems very viable, especially with certain games (pocket legends, lol) as a everyday device.

I would like your opinions as fellow Android users.

thanks,

-CC

EDIT: Didn't get a chance to get much feedback from EVO community, thread was closed. Hope we can get some "android user's" opinions. Personally I am looking really hard at the Barnes & Noble Nook Color.

Re: Which Android Tablet would you get?

I have been itching for a tablet The nook is tempting. Just unsure if there will be good development. Funny an ereader would be more appealing than the samsung (kind of just a larger version of my evo inmo). I decided I would use a tablet to offload internet browsing and manage notes and calender and tasks, which i currently do with my 12" laptop. I am also considering this:

Re: Which Android Tablet would you get?

The nook color has had great reviews, now that it has been found to be able to completely boot off SD. It means great things for developers/users to load up custom roms without actually messing with the unit's firmware. Some devs are already picking this thing up.. Quickly becoming the "darling" of XDA.

Wish list; bluetooth, cam/cameras (for skype vid conferencing), microphone, OTG USB Host, are some things I wish it had..

Re: Which Android Tablet would you get?

Having used both tablets and netbooks, I tend to lean toward the netbook. Both are of similar magnitude to the material and size, but really is not a substitute for a keyboard when productivity or ease of use is concerned. The concept seems to be a whole tablet large cell, which has no great capacity to maximize the efficiency of the keyboard.

Re: Which Android Tablet would you get?

I looked at the iPad and an Asus netbook, went with the Asus due to a 256gb drive, memory and a real live keyboard, plus a few other things.
