I have been 'experimenting' (for want of a better term) with a low end Android Tablet, called the ePad. Now, comparing it to the iPad would be silly, as that would be like comparing a VeeDub with a Mercedes.
( Keeping that in mind )So yes, it works. Does exactly what it's made to do. It's fine for quick email check, websurfing, and e-book reading. I haven't tried any games out on it, as that wasn't what I had wanted to test for. But keep the charger, or external power source handy if you need running for 4+ hours.
