Kindle fire vs Hudl 2

[Drago]

All those benzinated carcinogens. Nothing worse than being stuck behind a petrol car.

Diesel stinks There's nothing worse than being behind a diesel vehicle, in car or on bike

And I like my cars to accelerate immediately

Unusual sight: someone derailing their own thread.

Is there a decent 10 incher in budget?

Miss Goodbody is impressed by my 8 incher

I bought the Mother in Law a hudl2 for her birthday. Have to say, apart from the Tesco bloatware its very good.

My OH has a Kindle Fire and loves it but they can be restrictive compared to a full Android tablet. A mate has the Hudl and loves it. The Hudl 2 is even better from what I can tell from the reviews. My vote would be for the Hudl 2.

This bit is just personal taste. I hate reading on a tablet with a glossy glass screen. Too much glare and the backlight makes my eyes tired. I much prefer reading on an old style Kindle (I have the Paperweight) with a front lit eInk screen. I can read on that for hours. The etched glass screen (looks like the older screens) on the new Voyage does look good though and is front lit so should be.

I guess if they get into it they may use i player

This looks a good deal but I think a 10.1 screen may be better, so something like a galaxy.

I think that is a stonking offer - so much so that I'm getting 'er indores to get me that for Christmas. Unless you really want the bigger screen, I'd say that deal is pretty damn hard to beat.

I got a Hudl2 a month ago, well pleased with it so far and for £79 with some club points it would be rude not to have one!

Having got a JL price match on the Galaxy 3 10.1 earlier in the week (for £179), I went to buy it this morning only to find it was out of stock online having been reduced to £149 for Black Friday. I called up and was told they had a few (single digits) at the Croydon Store which is my most local...so a panicked dash over in the car and got one for £149! Leaves me some budget for a keyboard case and a stylus if required

You got a hell of a good deal there. Well done. You won't be disappointed
