Hey i'm looking at a nexus 7 currently: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ASUS-Google-Nexus-7-16GB-Wi-Fi-7i…
But i'm more looking at this tablet as it is $50 cheaper: http://www.dealsilove.com.au/deals/nextbook-premium-7-tablet…
What is a good cheap alternative?
Bing Lee is currently selling the 7" Nexus for $219 for the 16gb version.
You would be far better off with the Nexus rather than that other thing. I suspect the CPU is a single core 1ghz jobbie. Good luck if you buy it.
If you really want to take a chance on a cheap Chinese jobbie, try Ainol, thats what most people here go for.
