Stonecat and I both agree the Droid Bionic looks to be the phone to get... but the price like that one you listed for 299 is insane to pay PLUS the monthly fee these carriers charge.

yea, ended up buying it actually. Decided on a smaller tablet, 7". compared the few that are out there and liked this one the best. the 10 inchers including the ipad i think i wouldnt get as much use out of due to a limited mobility. This one can fit an a cargo pocket probably :-p

Really couldnt beat the 299. price tag, compared to double that price for a lot of the others. Not planning it on using it in place of my laptop really, just wanted one for travel, to show our families digital pics (without hauling around a laptop) and maybe a little game playing/movie watching. We liked that this one will sync better with our phones (droids) then the apple does and I wasnt really impressed with some of the other ones out there like toshiba, acer and blackberry.

Just got it a couple hours ago, so far it does what i want it to, the only snag Ive hit is im not sure if netflix will run on it for some reason..

if you cant get netflix going i can get you a modded version of the APK that will work. careful with the cargo pocket if you plan on carrying ti in your ACU's. Besides the fact that the velcro sucks, I smashed my phone screen when it was in my cargo(9cant remember why I put it there) getting into my car (car door hit it)
