Up until now I had yet to buy a tablet since I have a smartphone (Motorola Droid Bionic). But I found an inexpensive quad core tablet at Wal-Mart for only $69.99 + tax came to $74.90 with free shipping. I live in Nebraska and it shipped from Cedar Rapids, Iowa so I received it only 2 days via Fed Ex even with the free shipping.

The tablet so far seems to crunch a little faster than my dual core phone, it's at 1.5ghz instead of the around 1ghz of my phone. It was really a "no brainer" to buy because of the price (I don't know how they're making a profit on it, the chip alone costs $20!) I participate in WCG of course, and can also use it to play games, watch shows, etc. on a bigger screen than a smartphone.

I did some research before buying and there is really not a better deal on a tablet out there. It even has some better features than tablets priced $99-$130 because it has the newest Android O/S (Jellybean 4.2). The only drawback (if you even care about this feature, I don't) is it only has a .3 megapixel front facing camera. But everything is else is good.

Just wanted to pass along this good deal in case anyone else is like me and didn't want to spend a bunch of money on a tablet. You can add 4 cores/work units to your crunching arsenal for only $75, can't beat that!
