Tablet Computers

I have donated my iPad 1to my mother-in-law and the new ones don't come out for a months yet. I just happened to stumble across a 7" Pendo Pad in the Bunbury Office Works for $69! I presumed at that price it wasn't going to be the fastest tablet on the block, but boy it was cheep.
It turns out, yes, it's slow, the battery doesn't last very long and it does lock up every now and then (is that a crappy App or the Pendo?), but it does the job. I found a reasonable SSH client, Samba client and a few other Apps to help me run my gear.
Runs Android Jellybean 4.2. 800x600 touch screen screen. Here is the back end of the box:
A reasonable purchase for $69 if your desperate or just need something to tide you over for a while.
