I bought an Azpen Android tablet for $40. It's a POS. It was slow, not even as fast as my 3g iPod Touch. I went to a food themed website that I used to frequent, they had a huge makeover, and it apparently overwhelmed my crappy tablet. It crashed and so far, I h e not been able to revive it. I found a few sites that explain how to reload the firmware, but so far I have not been able to get it done.

I'm thinking of going on Craig'slist to get a newer iPod Touch (although the old one is still working well).
