Hi folks
I am looking for a budget tablet which I shall use primarily for office/ document related work (like PDF file and E-book reading) and Internet browsing and media viewing would be secondary.

I have seen the BSNL-Pentel Tablet. It's pretty cheap, 3499/- only. Should I go for it or is there any better option available in same or near budget as above?

Please suggest.

Thank you

Well, at present it's well below 7k (lower the better) as I have no intention to get anything flashy and for my needs a 10k or greater tablet will be overkill.

There is another one Karbonn Tab 1...though I am not sure whether the extra price for the funbook is at all justified. More so, as I find that the battery of Funbook is of very low capacity...only 2800mAh

yeah the battery capacity is low...
well the karbonn tab doesn't have an a10. processor (it has a xburst proccy which is not an ARM one) + no information on its gpu( it maynot be Mali 400)

if you have no dislike towards "ainol" company, then there is the ainol nobody 7 tornado which has been released just a few days before which comes with 1GB ram which is not available in other tablets below 10k..... Here is the link:
