I purchased a Zenithink zt180v2 in November. I purchased it because I wanted to get a feel for the tablet market, would I even use it alot? Turns out I do..I think the Zenithink is a good starter tablet. My issue is I have about $500 to spend on a tablet (I don't have to spend up to $500 but I am willing too). I am trying to find the most bang for my buck tablet. I know I want it to have ICS (or be able to be upgraded), I know I want HDMI (i would like to be able to mirror anything that is on my screen to my TV..I know some tablets do not allow this) I want to be able to stream movies, record movies, take pictures, watch youtube, listen to music. I do not need top of the line but I would like the tablet to be fast. I would prefer 10" but will consider smaller, aslong as I can watch a movie on the tablet (get really good picture) and then hook up the HDMI and still get really good picture on my new HD tv

Here are a few tablets that I am considering (if you have any other recommendations please make them..there are SO many tablets out there)

Transformer Prime -- but I have read alot of bad reviews about the GPS and the Wifi..I don't think I wanna spend $500 on something I might not be able to use in another room of my house. I do not want to wait for the new prime to come out either.

Thrive -- I have read a few reviews that the screen cracks pretty easy, and that its difficult to update.

Playbook -- Seems like a pretty good tablet, but the different OS concerns me, I want to be able to use android apps. Also for the cost of the playbook I can get a fairly decent 10inch.

Acer iconia a500 -- This tablet seems to fit everthing I want..but I have read some reviews that say it has pixel freezing issues, it locks up alot, the browser locks up and shuts down, and that it has hardware issues.

Once again these are not the only tablets I am considering, if you know of one that fits what I am looking for please let me know. Thank you guys for all your help.
