Should I keep Ideapad K1?

[InverseOfNeo]

So I'll make this story short. I won a Lenovo Ideapad K1. I read up on it and it seems like it has it's fair share of issues (though I'm not sure if they are hardware or Andriod related).

Before I found out I won it, I didn't think I had a need for a tablet. Now that I have one it's made me reconsider. Though I don't know if I want to try to sell it and get something that has better reviews (Samsung Galaxy tab) or maybe wait to see what the iPad3 has to offer in a couple of months (which I can wait for). The sell then buy option would probably cost me $125-200.

What would you do?

I'd personally keep it, but I kind of wanted one of those anyway, so if I won one I'd be pretty happy...

podspi, what made you decide on this one as opposed to a Samsung or iPad?

Sell it, the reviews aren't great. Much better stuff is coming soon.

Doh! :$

I was actually thinking of this:

Personally, I'd still keep it (since you said you didn't really want a tablet anyway) as something to play with.

I recently received a Kindle Fire, and while I think its great (for a toy), I still believe the Tablet formfactor leaves a lot to be desired.


I have purchased a lot of Android apps, so I prefer to stick with that ecosystem for now.
