M7 7" Android 2.3 RK2918 Cortex A8 1.2GHz 8GB Tablet

I am looking for a cheap android tablet that i can keep on the coffee table for public use. it will be an internet browser, a media remote, and 5th screen for football sunday.

i would also like to use skype video chat with it, so i need a front camera and android 2.3. cost is a big factor too, so i would like to keep it under $150

this one costs $142, and has pretty good specs for the money. anything i should be aware of before buying? i figure since it already runs android 2.3 i wont have to worry much about rooting it....

its a piece of junk that's going to sell for $99 by black friday. 800x480 is way low resolution and the screen touch is extremely poor for capacitive. no gps- no bluetooth. RK chip(sucks) - i'd get a lenovo A1 for $179 (corporate perks) which has real gps and real bluetooth . the front camera is junk on the m7 too. Plus good luck with support and warranty. do yourself a favor and wait for the black friday deals on MAJOR brands, or pick up a used quality device (galaxy tab 3G 7" used $150~). Unless you are spamming to sell these products AVOID buying junk non-major brand tablets. they will be miserable.

Focus your time on scoring a great quality used samsung tab etc. Ton's of 3G devices that are blacklisted but still function for GPS and nobody wants to buy a blacklisted 3G device (broken contract not stolen) so you can get mad deal on them.

Lenovo A1 for everyone else.
