Tablet advise

[StoneRoses]

I bought me and the wife Playbooks about a month back and for me it promises much but ultimately disappoints. The operating system is very intuitive but it's full of little irritations that have started to grind me down. Mines going on ebay although the wife is keeping hers.

I know everyone hates them but I'm going to do what my gut told me in the first place and buy an iPad. If you don't need the latest and greatest there's some great deals on the iPad 2.

I have been searching on the usual places, ie, pcworld,comet,currys,gumtree ,ebay, but can't find any reallygood deals on ipad2, do you have a link to any of these good deals please? i don't mind 2nd gen specs
Its bank holiday weekend so it demands i go spend some money

Cheers
Bob

Just to sort of kickstart this again... what would you techies recommend for an android tablet? Must be running android4 - so I can watch eurosport player on the move. Not bothered by 3g, wifi should be enough. Min 7".

Probably top of the list so far id asus eee transformer. android 3.2 & 4.0 upgradeable.

Best deal I can find at the moment is £294 brand new which is from Simply Electronics. Apple had some refurb 16GB iPad 2's for £265 last Wednesday but they're back up to £295 today. The Apple refurbs are for all intents and purposes, brand new, they've have new chassis and 12 months warranty.

Cheers for that ,will have a look, best i found was Argos £319 for same model.

Also, now looking at an iphone 4s aswell, does anyone have both and iphone 4s and ipad 2 and tether them?, is this easy? and does it depend on the provider used?, i am either going to be using giffgaff or tescomobile?

Sorry for all the questions, late adopter!
