Q. I am looking for a decent tablet for around $300 with a nice screen, any suggestions?
A. You can get a 1st generation refurbished iPad for around $349.
If you want a decent Android tablet, the least expensive one that's worth the purchase is the ASUS Eeee Pad Transformer - around $399.
Stay away from the off-brand Chinese-manufactured tablets. They can run from $250-350, but price is definitely NOT quality. The are horrible!

Is the price of Samsung Galaxy tab expected to fall by December end?
Q. I don't need it right now.
A. There are three Galaxy Tabs. The 7", 8.9" and 10.1". Likely, you'll see a price drop on all three by year end.
The "next-generation" of Android tablets will be coming out by the holiday season. These quad-core powered tablets, like the Amazon Hollywood, will push the price of the current top-line models down quite a bit.
Seriously consider a factory refurbished model. They've been fully reconditioned to like-new status by Samsung and are usually about $100 less expensive than new, with the same warranty. Just make sure its a "factory" refurbished model.

How to convert from IOS to Nexus 7?
Q. I want to get an iPad for school, but a Nexus 7 is just so much better wallet wise. I know very little about Android and want to know if I can download my iTunes library (all recent and not protected) to the tablet. Also, I dont have a credit card. Is there a way to add credit without said card (such as an iTunes gift card)?
A. First the music:
Yes, if the music is unprotected, you can transfer it onto the Nexus 7. I would recommend using DoubleTwist as your music player.
Next, Gift Card:
Yes, and it was just made possible by Google. Go to Target/GameStop, and buy a Google Play Store Gift Card and redeem it in the Google Play store.
Last, on iPad
According to rumors, a 7" iPad will be released soon. And with the screen being smaller, so will the price. Also, on apple.com, you can buy the non-retina iPad (iPad 2) for cheaper. And if you want it even cheaper, go to the refurbished store of Apple and buy one there.
And may I recommend just going with the iPad. it has so much support from software developers, hardware manufactures, and the general tech-community, which makes it really good for school. The Nexus 7 doesn't have that.

Which is better, the nook color or kindle fire?
Q. I would like to buy one, and I can't find many differences beside storage space ans the fire's ability to store movies. So, I guess my biggest question is which device would best for reading? Which one would give me more access to books? What about free books? And no, I don't want to buy Amazon Prime.
A. Hi Carissa, first of all you're absolutely correct that Amazon Prime is worthless - for $79/year you get 13,000 movies and 10,000 books included while Netflix for $8 a month has millions of movies and B&N ebook store has millions of books (and over 2.5 million free ones). Also it's worth mentioning that if you walk in with any Nook to Barnes & Noble store, you'll get tech support and you�re allowed to read ANY available eBook for free while in the store via free provided in the store Wi-Fi. It is confirmed at this time that many Kindle Fire units have faulty Wi-Fi and people have a lot of issues connecting to internet according to many user reviews. Other issues are that it runs hot to touch, video playback is jerky, touch screen is not responsive and it takes 2-3 touches to register, power button placement is very poor and is prone to accidental power off, all the hype of Silk browser is a myth where the browsing is actually slower than on other Android tablets, etc.
Nook Tablet (which is Nook Color 2) has been getting rave reviews and it is the best device in it's class - much better than Kindle Fire. It's got Netflix, Hulu, Pandora, Angry Brids, etc., the best battery life (30% better than Fire), the best non-glare laminated screen (vs. very reflective screen of Fire), double the RAM and space for apps/photos/movies, microSD slot, a microphone for Skype, and physical volume controls on the side (neither of those is on Kindle Fire.)
Also, did you know that you can actually get refurbished Nook Color for $139 on OverStock.com or in official B&N store on eBay.com with one year warranty and that Nook Color now streams Netflix movies and got a lot of apps (Angry Birds, etc.)?
