I'm looking for a tablet, must be similar to iPad but cheaper.

Will mainly use it for reading pdf magazines etc.

I found the site www.thetabletpc.co.za

Looks promising??

And only for ereading.

Suppose it would be nice spending this kind of money to browse email, surf net and read downloaded PDF mags.
 
Watched the youtube vids, checked screenshots - look mooi........and for the price.
 
Just played around with the iPad at one of our clients, setup email and wireless.

Very nice - videos are very clean.
PDF docs are like an lcd screeen on laptop and I think will train your eyes.
Also a tad heavy but I think you can get used to it.

Do you mean strain? I read a lot on mine and adapted very quickly.
