I'm thinking of what to buy my girlfriend for christmas, and, being a bloke, I'm looking to buy her something that I can't justify to buy for myself, but if I buy it for her and use it then it's ok. Andrea has taken to using my laptop for eBay, and using my account. She also spends her time looking at wedding dresses, venues and favours. We're not engaged, and something tells me she's trying to give me signs...
My options are between a tablet thingy (ideally not apple) or a small laptop/netbook like this here.
I don't need to have 3G, wifi will be fine. I need it to be able to use Microsoft word or equivalent, go onto eBay, be relatively easy to use the keyboard for typing and to be able to access http://www.skillsfile.org. I do some work on building sites, and can't be carrying a large laptop around. The battery needs to actually last for about 6 hours. I also don't mind buying second hand as long as it's in good condition. Budget is around £200-£250, but that's flexible.
Anyone got any advise, experience or ideas?
