What is a good tablet that is less than $300 and has about a 10 inch screen?

Q. Ipads are way too spendy, so I was looking at PC/Android tablets. I want to spend less than $300 and have a screen that is 10 inches. If it was a 7 inches, I would buy a Nexus 7, but I want something bigger and can compare to a Ipad. Any suggestions?

A. There is not going to be much available in that price range in a 10" tablet. Most 10" tablets tart at around $300 and go up from there. However, Best Buy does have 1 tablet available that is quite low priced. It is a fairly new tablet and hasn't been on the market long, so I don't see many reviews around the internet on it. But what I have seen is primarily positive. Here is the info:

Zeki - Tablet with 8GB Memory - Black/White Model: TB1082B SKU: 6001064 $164.99

or you could go with this unit which is a bit more.....

Acer - Iconia Tablet with 8GB Memory Model: A200-10G08U SKU: 4873089 $288.98

other than these two, everything is going to be used or refurbished....


Which would be the best tablet to buy?
Q. Okay so at the moment im thinking of buying a new tablet i have an idea of which one i want and its either the
Acer Iconia Tab A500-10S16u 10.1-Inch Tablet Computer
or
MOTOROLA XOOM Android Tablet (10.1-Inch, 32GB, Wi-Fi)

out of these 2 which one is better and if you guys have any suggestions on another one please recommend it, but please dont say an ipad as i already have one.

A. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
- Lightweight slim tablet
- Excellent speed with dual core 1GHz processor to run latest application with no problem
- Excellent device to watch HD videos on YouTube and Netflix
- Smooth screen transition and snappy response
- Great browsing and gaming experience
- Flash is enabled


Where can I currently purchase a Gateway TP A60 tablet online?
Q. I'm looking to pick up another tablet, just as a gadget to play around with on the side.. but I can't find any information at all about the Gateway A60 Android tablet that came out late last year? Can anyone help me find it?

A. Gateway is a subsidiary of Acer, which rebranded the Acer Iconia Tab A500 and changed the exterior look a bit. But internally, the A60 and the A500 are the exact same product, and even sold for the same price.

There's little to no information out there as to what exactly happened, but it appears the A60 was a failed business venture and they've since pulled the whole Gateway tablet line.

If you'd like some information on the Acer A500, here's a link where you can read up on and/or buy it.

can any android tablet with a front facing camera be able to video call ?
Q. i am confused with all the different types of android google tablets.
all i want is a tablet to make video calls with skype...can i do this with any tablet with a front facing camera ??

A. Thanks for your question.

Some Tablet PCs with front facing cameras support Skype video calls - all the OEM versions including Samsung Galaxy, the Acer Iconia tablets will work well - ensure that the Tablet PC runs at least Android 2.2 (Android 3 and 4 will surely work).

If you have other Android Tablet PCs, especially those costing about $100 - $199, you may want to use Tango as the alternative Video calling solution. You can perform Video calls with iPhones, iPads and PCs. I have tried it and it works well.
