    Default looking at getting a tab, pros and cons ?

    as title says, I am looking at an android device, have it down to three main contenders the toshiba, the acer and the motorola. I am leaning towards the toshiba.
    any opinions on these particular ones ? 3G is not important to me btw

    Have an Acer Iconia 500 without the 3G, use a wireless router to link up with satellite internet. Uses Android v3.01OS. Installed firefox for mobiles.
    Enjoy using the unit, still prefer my Ubuntu Linux PC for greater versatility.
