Bought a Le Pan II for hubby's birthday and we (mostly "i") can't put it down!! This is our first tablet so i wasn't sure how to make it "cool" but once i started adding an app for this and an app for that, we loved it even more. I try to keep it out of the bedroom because I’m afraid I’ll fall asleep playing with it and punt it across the room in the middle of the night. I did buy the optional protection plan, but I don’t wanna press my luck. And I’d hate to have to start over with all the apps and wallpapers I’ve downloaded. The picture is great, the screen is super sensitive (in a good way), it's easy to hold. One of my fav features is the fact that your main three buttons aren't really “buttons”. They're on the screen so whichever way you rotate the tablet, your buttons are always in the bottom left corner. The screen protector we purchased might alter the picture a bit because it’s anti-glare but it still looks fantastic so no worries about buying those. Outside or in well-lit places, you’ll be glad to have it! It was not easy to apply, however, but please don’t let that deter you…some ppl are better with that sort of thing than others. Just be prepared to spend a little time with it and focus on the peace of mind you’ll have knowing your screen is protected, and easier to see! No case yet, so no comment on how well that works out. I’ve read that using cases made for other tablets make some of the buttons hard to reach, but I have yet to see a “Le Pan case” so you work with what you’ve got. We only have one movie on it so far, and therein lies our only issue with this little guy, movies and videos. First, 8 GB seemed like a lot to us because we don't need it for work or anything...but after we tried to put a movie on it (albeit unconverted) we found out that we didn't have enough storage space. The next lesson we learned was that the videos we shot with our simple little digicam wouldn’t play on the Le Pan II. If you’re more familiar with tablets than we were then you’ll already know you need more space if you’re going to be doing much movie watching, and that you’ll likely need to start converting your collection. I was able to convert a couple of things (to check the quality because all we’d done up to this point was play games) and we’re still in love, so no biggie there! Another issue that doesn’t bother us because we don’t need this function is the camera. It does not take good pics, but we don’t need or want a tablet for that. If you do, be advised that you won’t love the pics you take and that the camera is only front-facing so you won’t be able to see the image as you take your pic…unless you’re trying to see yourself and/or whatever’s lurking behind you. Other than that, you will LOVE this tablet! When I was researching which tablet to purchase, a friend brought his first gen iPad to work so I could play with it and I’m loving the Le Pan II waaaaay more. I did say he has a first gen iPad, so I can’t compare mine with the newer Apples, but I wasn’t going to spend Apple money (still won’t) and I couldn’t be any happier with my decision. =D
