Has anyone else considered purchasing the nvidia shield tablet? What have I missed in the android world in the last two years?

I've got the console and am loving it. The tablet looks amazing :D but I'm not really one for the form factor so ja, but if I were to get a tablet, the shield would defs be it :)

That's awesome! I'm glad to hear that the console rocks. Can it stream Netflix? How is the quality and price here in SA?

Yes it can, I have Netflix and Hulu+ up and running on it, the initial setup was done through a VPN to the USA in order to install the relevant apps from the US app store. I purchased it through Amazon around March, and with an extra controller and expedited shipping it came to about R4k

Earlier this year I was looking to buy a new tab when I got robbed.
Insurance paid out with a card I could only use at physical stores, and I could not find this tab anywhere. it was my top choice though.

I ended up getting a Lenovo tab instead, and I have been super happy with it.

I see this tablet goes for around 5k now.

I'm in the market for an android tablet but....don't know.

Seems like an absolute monster of a tablet.

I think it is the best tablet you can spend your money on. Top range components for low end prices. The mini hdmi out is awesome if you need a device to connect to a projector.
