The only downside is the browser is a touch clunkier than the iPad2 or even other Android tablets. For the price though, it makes for a great alternative tablet. But it is limited to Amazon's app market, which doesn't include all Android apps. There are ways to side-load apps not available on Amazon, but it requires more effort than it's worth.

If you want the best, iPad2. If you want the least expensive but still functional, Kindle Fire.
