    Default Buying a new tablet :)

    OK... So i'm 16 in nearly 3 weeks, and i'm getting a new tablet for my birthday I can't decide which to buy though...
    So i would like a bit of information or recommendations.
    And only one requirement...
    It has to be able to run STS games
    Nothing related to any players or drug references because they already got me into trouble

    Go to best buy or some store and try out the Asus Transformer.

    One more idea. You could try a archos Internet tablet. There are different inch models and 8 inch is the cheapest

    I would have said iPad2 or Asus Eee Pad Transformer.

    Just had my new copy of stuff magazine today and they're 1st and 2nd in the list.

    Last months list is http://www.stuff.tv/top-10s/tablets

    This month's (in their magazine but not on their web site yet) includes the Sony Tablet S at number 4 but doesnt touch the top two.

    Hope that helps.. Let us know what you get.
    Use the SEARCH function or it'll probably be here--> PL stuff or SL stuff >>> I'm 'SRINGY 2' .

    Don't buy the asus transformer I'm waiting for the asus transformer prime (follow up of the transformer). Looks awesome. It is gonna have a Nivida 3 quad core processor. It'll either launch with honeycomb or 4.0 ice-cream sandwich. It should get 4.0 eventually either way. Said to come out November 9th. Gonna be sick. Said to be made out of aluminum. So super light. Here's some sites on it:

    Broke the benchmark too
