Misc
1. Other non specific items ~ please add other items you require not covered above? N/a
2. Additional requests ~ anything other you wish to take into consideration? I've been looking for a tablet for some time but I'm having a hard time making an informed decision. The iPad 3 is interesing as I've used ones that friends own and they work well. I was also interested in the Galaxy Tab at one point as well as the Asus Transformer (because of the quad core processing). I'd like a fairly robust app store, marketplace, what have you. Any suggestions or advice would be most welcome.
