Well over here it my budget is £200 but about the same. I excluded the really cheap crap and narrowed it down to the following list, in order of cost starting with the cheapest:

Hannspree SN1AT71
Nurvo
Sumvision Cyclone Voyager (2Gb)
Lenovo S6000
Asus MeMo Pad ME102A
Toshiba Excite At10-A-104

Can anyone identify any advantages/disadvantages of each which might help narrow the selection.

So Asus looking the fav at the moment. Comparing that to the cheaper Hannspree I notice that the Hannspree has:
- HDMI out + 3 Axis Accelerometer
which the Asus does not, however the Asus has a Hall Sensor which the Hannspree doesn't but what does a Hall Sensor actually do?

And looking at the Toshiba that has:
- 3D Acceleration sensor, GPS, Gyroscopic Sensor, e-Compass

Which is a GPS and Acceleration sensor more than the Asus does. Does the Asus have any different advantages that the Toshiba doesn't?

the real advantage of the asus is quality and therefor reliability. the only other useful thing (to me) of that list would be HDMI out. Did u look at the hardware specs? they are probably different as well tho maybe not in ASUS's favor
