Admitting my lack of knowledge when it comes to tablets and such.
The wife has mentioned she wants a large one say 10" or so, (hoping she means the tablet) I figured I'd get one for X-mas.

I have figured out she wants a WiFi one to just surf the net, watch movies, email and such.
She does not want one with a computer/Microsoft/whatever installed.

Trying to keep cost some where in that blue collar retired range if possible, say $250 - $350 or so.

Any idea's?

Hey ya Al. I have a Kindle Fire and it works great for that kind of stuff. It also falls into the price range you're talking about.


Mine is getting a bit old as it's one of the first of the "Fire" series and I'm going to order a new one soon.

I was gonna suggest the Kindle Fire as well. My son is somewhat of a discerning computer consumer and likes his.

Al, I was in Best Buy looking for one for Sherri. Bought her an ipad but I saw Samsung Galaxy Tabs on big sale.

She has a Kindle Fire, but it's the smaller 7"? model, I see they do have a 10" model, thanks.

Wandering CNET they do mention the Samsungs a lot, Thanks much


Al...who thinks he got left behind when they discontinued the rotary phone.

Wife got the Samsung 8" wifi only. Loves it $160. 10" was too big to fit in her purse.
