I haven't researched it, yet anyway. I'm starting to see deals on the deal-a-day site for under $200 for Android Tablets. I expect those will have GPS and Bleutooth out of the box and not require the work. Better is a subjective word. I don't mind playing around getting full android to work on the Nook, but most people want something that works out of the box.

I think the Slate is super slick for the money. It really is in a different class than the other tablets. I think Android and iPads are shooting for the same basic market. Not so with the Slate.
