After a tablet PC, I don't really want to go down the iPad route. What would you say is a decent substitute? Is there any out there that I would be able to use my Three USB modem in or sim card for when there is no WiFi about?

The Samsung one look good. Don't know too much about it though.

Next time try using the right section yeah ;)

They had that one in Tesco, it looked pretty swish. I know I just realised lol.

Take a look at the Advent Vega. It's being sold by PC World/Dixons/Currys.

£250 or so, runs Android 2.2, has a NVidia Tegra 2 chip in it.

Only downside is no 3g, but that doesn't really matter if you have a mobile phone that can act as a hot spot.

I've borrowed one from a mate at work for a couple of days, it's pretty damn slick, benchmarking reckons its about 10-15% faster than my Nexus One running a custom 2.2 build.

It's got a full size USB port on it, with the custom software pack that's available at Modaco you can make the USB port act as a host port and use memory sticks in them, GPS dongles have been found to work as well, I dunno if anyone has tried using a USB 3g modem on it though.

Takes microSD cards for memory storage has an HDMI port on it for playing stuff on your TV (Angry Birds on a 46" screen is pretty good).

Plays most non-MKV formats from my XBMC box via upnp more than happily.
