Tiger direct has this

Pandigital R90A200 Internet Tablet - 9" Touch-Screen, Android 2.0, 2GB Storage, ARM 11 Mobile Processor, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi

On Sale for $99 with FREE SHIPPING, and you get a $50 rebate. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1412996&CatId=6957

I bought one.

I have no doubt it is the worst Tablet on the MKT, but for 49 bucks, maybe I'll use it for the wifi. Be easier than a phone screen for sure, when sitting out in front of a waffle house.

I am gonna order a 2nd one.

The rebates with Tiger Direct are a pain in the ass, but they do pay.

What the heck, 50 bucks? I'll take two please.

according to a guy on slickdeals ( a discount finder site) he said the following about this deal

No tech guru, but

Screen resolution is 400x800 which is low. Android 2.0 ie gingerbread but that can probably be rooted to ics. 2gb of internal space is good and expandable.

For $50 I would play with it. It nothing more than ereader and browser. It wouldn't be good for games.

Also it only has a one month warranty which is insane. They must know people root it and don't want to deal with issues. Still inexcusable as I just got refurbished product in the mail today that has 90 day warranty.

I think it is fine for a surf here and there :103631605

Oh yes, they got that right after IHOP did. The nice thing about the Waffle House, is you can sit aside for hours, and that don't care. Lotta folks hand out there.

I got one. It's not that great. It will work for simple basic stuff, but its slow. I basically use it as an e-reader and i occasionally check e-mail

This isn't all that great of a machine. It has more of a squishy touch screen which basically means it's a little less responsive and slow. It's ok for kids under 13 and as mentioned mainly an e-reader at best. I would save the cash and get much better offerings that will come out during the holidays.

There's a reason they are selling them cheap. I asked the guy at the local Best Buy about these and he stated they were loss leaders and wouldn't recommend them under any circumstances.

I guess if you want to read news, place bets, etc this would work ok, I don't like the part about a 1 month warranty. As it was stated this will be hacked to upgrade from Gbread for those that know how to. If you got one, let us know how it works out. It will make for a nice beer coaster down the road.

I was thinking about doing some early Christmas shopping and getting my mom this as a reader and hopefully introduce her to the world of Apps and internet on the go.
