I bought a 2nd hand iPad 16 GB Wifi for about $270, although I got it from a friend, I figured it wouldn't hurt to try eBay or perhaps craigslist. My first iPad is almost a year old now, and it's still serving me well when I have my breaks.

MassageSlave, as previously stated, I strongly suggest the nook simple touch - $79, simple touch based eBook reader with a great interface. I find the nook products to be far better quality.

Right now AT&T is offering the Samsung Tab 8.9, with a free top Samsung phone. Best deal I've seen.
The Tab 8.9 is good except no extra storage card other than USB.

"free top Samsung phone" - oh really? Admirable how AT&T is trying to dust off the stuff stuck on their shelves.

Report from AFP dated 30 December 2011 :-
Kindle sales on fire: Amazon
=====================
NEW YORK - Amazon said Thursday that it sold more than one million Kindles a week in December with the new Kindle Fire tablet computer its top-selling item.
This year saw "the best holiday ever for the Kindle family as customers purchased millions of Kindle Fires and millions of Kindle e-readers," the Seattle-based online retail giant said in a statement.
Amazon said the Kindle Fire has been the "number one best-selling, most gifted and most wished for product" on Amazon.com since it went on sale 13 weeks ago.
Besides the Kindle Fire, Amazon offers a range of Kindle electronic book readers.
Amazon said it sold "well over" one million Kindle devices per week in December with the Kindle Touch and basic Kindle taking the top two spots after the Fire.
Amazon said the Kindle is its best-selling item in Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Spain in addition to the United States.
The company said "gifting" of Kindle books between November 25 and Christmas Day rose 175 percent compared to the holiday period last year with Christmas Day the biggest day ever for Kindle book downloads.
Despite the rosy sales numbers for the gadgets, Goldman Sachs said in a research note that the online titan may fall short of fourth-quarter earnings expectations.
Industry tracker comScore found that US online spending for the first 56 days of the November-December holiday season rose 15 percent over the same period last year to US$35.3 billion (S$46 billion).
"On average, Amazon's year-over-year sales growth in the fourth quarter has outpaced holiday season eCommerce by 23 points," Goldman Sachs said.
"As such, the comScore data released today would imply top line growth of 38 percent year-over-year to US$17.87 billion, slightly below current consensus of $18.19 billion, up 40 percent year-over-year."
Amazon shares meanwhile lost 0.02 percent on Wall Street to close at $173.86.
The Kindle Fire costs US$199, less than half the price of the cheapest iPad from tablet market leader Apple.
It has a seven-inch (17.78-centimeter) screen, smaller than the iPad's 9.7 inches (24.6 centimeters), connects to the Web using Wi-Fi and is powered by Google's Android software.
It does not have a camera or the 3G connectivity featured on other tablets but gives buyers easy access to Amazon's online store, which sells books, music, movies, television shows, games and other content.

Report from AFP dated 4 January 2012 :-
1.4 million orders for world's cheapest tablet in India
=======================================
NEW DELHI-The world's cheapest tablet computer has clocked 1.4 million bookings since it was put up for sale online two weeks ago in India, a spokeswoman told AFP on Tuesday.
Bookings for the long-awaited Aakash, pegged at 2,500 rupees (S$52), began on December 14, two months after it was unveiled as the "computer for the masses" in India where millions struggle to fund their education.
Datawind, the British company contracted by the Indian government to manufacture Aakash, said it had been taken by surprise by the response in India, where Apple's iPad computers costs a minimum of $600.
"The current response is overwhelming," a spokeswoman at the company's New Delhi PR agency told AFP in an email that detailed the number of bookings made so far.
Datawind is now taking orders for an upgraded version, called Ubislate 7 for March, and it will establish three new factories in 2012 to cope with the rush of orders.
"We plan to produce 75,000 units per factory per month from around April," the spokeswoman said.
The Economic Times in its online edition said the makers had run out of stock of Aakash, which has a seven-inch (18-centimeter) touchscreen, Wi-Fi Internet function, a multimedia player and 180 minutes of battery power.
The business daily said with around 400,000 pre-sales bookings for the Aakash, sales of the device were more than sales for the entire Indian tablet market last year which numbered about 250,000-300,000 units.
The stylish, locally-made Aakash uses an Android 2.2 operating system and has an external 2GB storage card and two USB ports.
Critics had warned the device might struggle to live up to expectations with its limited 256-megabyte random access memory (RAM).
The price of what has been dubbed "the world's cheapest computer" should fall to $35 and could even be hammered down as low as $10, DataWind has said.
The Aakash is part of a push to increase the number of students in higher education and to give them the technological skills needed to further boost the country's recent rapid economic growth.
