Personally, I can't justify an additional R3000, to add ONLY 3G. All other features are exactly the same if you compare the Acer A500 (wifi) and A501 (3G).

If you give me your email address, I'd be happy to forward the mail to you. Perhaps check your spam folder?

You still need your account details. [Nick]mybb I think. Password I think you need to register, can't remember though.

Hmm, I see the ad says "....with contract" - did you have to take a contract or could you buy the tablet for R2999 without having to sign up for a contract?
Link??
Nevermind... found the link: http://www.incredible.co.za/uploadedfiles/contentimages/addmedia/Tab_29Mar_1Apr.pdf
Probably going to get it, even though it's more than the 16gb's from Esquire, it looks like a better drive than the Kingstons...

The casing of that Cruzer Blade is made entirely of plastic. Personally I would rather choose something with a steel USB plug. I just bought this Patriot Axle drive from Takealot. I would also look at the Kingston DT101, Transcend JetFlash 500 and 530, Adata C008. Most of these should be cheaper than the Blade (RebelTech, Sybaritic, Esquire etc.).

Thanks for the advice... Problem is there are IC's all over the show but the places you mentioned are all online places so would need to pay shipping then...
I think that Loot is offering free shipping on that Patriot drive at the moment if that's of interest ...

Cool thanks for that...
But then what about the Patriot Flex? It says its water-resistant...

No contract at all. Just paid the R2999 and that`s it.

contracts to buy stuff sux.

Agreed. In this case though, it's only applicable if you "pay it off" over 24 months on a Vodacom contract. It then includes a separate 3G wifi router, hence a contract it needed for the SIM of the router.

How's the screen? Some reviews says there's a visible grid due to the touch system they use.
