So I want an "Internet Tablet" really to replace my old laptop.. I wanted a laptop just to use away from my desktop, something simple, so I bought a 1994 iBook G3 for somewhere around $300. Worked great, but the motherboard died. I now want something super portable. Obviously, I was looking into Pocket PCs and PDAs until I found these: Internet Tablets. They look perfect for me. I need one with the following:

- I will use this for music and internet.

- I want to watch videos on the internet... not just Youtube, some movies and videos such as ones off of Veoh and such.

- Be able to scroll through a forum with over 30 pictures a page (larger pictures) somewhat lag free... This could be a lot to ask, but it does it pretty well on the iPod Touch.

- The ability to type with my thumbs, somewhat fast... I don't want a gay little stick to hit my brand new thing with. I'm used to small keyboards though, I have the Samsung Double Flip with a QWERTY thats about the size of my thumb.

- Any extras would be a plus.

- Minimal price.


My brother has the Touch, but without Flash, I pretty much hate it. I need something that I can use anywhere for somewhat comfortable browsing...

My price range - $0-$300 MAX $350

I don't want/need the brand new stuff, old stuff will do, but I want to know that it will work.

If it doesn't then I guess I'll be going to either EEE PC which I really don't want to do, or the Touch.

So just say probably the 770 or the 800. I know most of you are going to say the 800, but if the 770 can do most of the things, example just browse a forum with a couple pictures but not 20 that'd be fine, I wouldn't mind. As long as watching videos is decent.

Smaller the price the better!

Thanks Guys!
