It really depends on what you like to do. If you read e-books (kindle/nook style) or plan to and you like playing games and using apps you will probably find the tablet to be pretty useful. I bought one of those HP tablets about a year ago when they were down to $99 and since I have been able to load android on it. I pretty much just use the kindle app and a few game apps for it, but it makes a nice reader and I can play Monopoly or Plants Vs. Zombies while on the shitter
