Self Build New Homes

My Advice before you Buy! 

     iPad's and other PC Tablets will generally need an internet connection to download AP's and other media, check if you are going to use wifi (normally available at home if you have Broadband and a wireless router) or via the mobile Phone network where you will need to have a SIM card and some form contract with the cell phone network for a minimum 2/3G DATA  connection and usage  (using Pay as you go on Phone networks can be expensive).

Check if you have a "Flash Player" capable device as a lot of Video content uses that format,

Check that the device you are buying has the facility to connect to the internet with at least one of the above methods.  

Other considerations are :- Memory, can you upgrade it? Has it enough?. Software, can that be upgraded? and also Processor Speed. 

    Android operated devices ( which work well with Google Maps and other Google services) have different Ap’s (Applications) available to them compared to an Apple iPad. The market place you download Ap’s from are different on both platforms, although popular Ap’s are usually available on both,...Android tend to have more useful free Ap’s available.
