I'm hoping some of you techies can help me out.
I have £250 of AMAZON vouchers that I want to use to buy a 10" tablet. Here's what I need...
To email.
Visit & post on forums.
Do surveys,watch vids,play games etc on a site I'm on .
Visit YOUTUBE.
So pretty much everything I suppose:o ,other than watching movies or downloading/uploading music.Nor will I be interested in apps (I don't think).
I know being restricted to AMAZON narrows things a bit but the vouchers are all I can use for this since I've no spare cash.( everybody.....boo-hoo:) )
Any ideas ?

Literally all tablets will be fine for that.
You almost certainly will be interested in apps to some extent.
The Samsung Galaxy tabs are quite reasonable. And around that price.
And yes,I'm picking up that Samsung is the way to go.
I'm just wary of spending the lot on something that won't do the things I need..
So I'm seeking as much advice as possible before deciding. Sorry for sounding stupid or dithery,but £250 is a lot to me (& most people I daresay),so I'm exploring all avenues.:)
Officially they are not though its still easy enough to install.
All you do is untick a box in settings to stop you installing apps from external sources and click a link that one of us can post you.
Not videos in flash though which the op requires.
I can do £25 OK .I shall check that out tomorrow. I've saved this page so you all might regret offering to help. Thank you everyone.:)
flash can be installed easy enough. you would also need to install firefox or a browser that supports flash too. but increasingly sites have other solutions available. rarely do you have to use it.

I don't know how Amazon vouchers work so don't know if this is too cheap, is change given?
And it won't be as good as the Samsung Tab2
Here is a link to the the archived page http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html if you scroll down you will see versions of flash for Android 4.0.
Also here is the FAQ from Adobe complete with YouTube video http://forums.adobe.com/message/4675670 it explains everything you need to know, always install the latest version for Android 4.0 though which is what I linked.
It's worth checking that you are on the latest version http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ which is 11.1.115.36
Yeah the balance stays on your amazon account.
By the way,has anyone heard ?......any chance SAMSUNG might extend that cashback thing ? I think it ends this month & you can't claim till you have the item more than 15 days,so I'm just a week or so out even if I ordered right away.:(
I was looking at this one below from Cambridge Sciences. Seems great value & good reviews by & large,but then the samsung is not TOO much more & is a top brand:cool:. Whatcha think?

It probably isn't the latest but it still works! If it ain't broke don't fix it I say
Lol this is flash we are talking about, you should always use the latest version to avoid malware on any platform, it's not like it takes long to install.
I didn't know that. Thanks for letting me know I shall check and update if I need to
