El cheapo tablet mostly for PDF reading

Took the questions I thought were most relevant from the mobile questionnaire.

1. Budget?
Sub-5k would be great.

2. Display type and size?
Something legible.

10. Primary use of handset (multimedia, camera, mails, internet, gaming etc)?
Primary use: reading A4-sized PDFs, one page at a time, in landscape. Mostly reference books, not novels. Also for light video usage.

11. Any specific tablets in consideration?
Nope.

I would suggest lava xtron ( has ips display)

I personally have veedee. D10dc but display I's my not that good

What about the Funbook Infinity?

same query though budget could be extended to 6-7k. was going to make a thread when saw this could some one please help me decide..
i was thinking about xtron but then xtron + came out and those fools spoiled the display..!!
i know kindle has been launched but it is way overprices compared to its overseas price.
someone please guide as i need to buy the tablet this week .thanks

hey which are the models you have in mind??

You could try for DOMO slate series of Tablets,Karbonn Smart series...which have prices less than Rs.5k

BSNL Penta IS709C/701C are not bad either for PDF reading.

These Tabs are also good for PDF reading ,though not up to the mark of Kindle Tablets.

Have a look at Amazon India.

This one.

Also, about the Penta... I read some reviews on infibeam claiming that these devices literally crawl, even when just browsing the web. Any info on battery life or reliability?

just checked and i found that etab xtron+ too has 7 inch IPS LCD capacitive multi touch screen with 1024 x 600 pixel display.
