    Looking for a tablet

    My mom wanna buy a tablet for my dad, and I know shit about Android Tablets (i'm mostly Apple)

    Here are the specifications that she wants (not sure if we can do it with all conditions but anyway)

    1) We are Canadian (so plz no bestbuy.com or stuff like that) in Canada it's mostly Futreshop, bestbuy.ca, walmart.ca etc
    2) He doesn't want an Ipad
    3) 16gig cuz mostly for some random photos, and watching video/movies (either netflix or transfered from PC)
    4) 10 inches screen
    5) between 200-399$ before taxes

    Is there anything possible? :O

    As I suggested in another thread, I have this one. (Not sure if amazon.ca has the same thing. It should?)

    32 gb w/ expandable memory
    10.1 screen (1920 x 1200)
    OS is Android
    $399

    I throw everything on this beast on road trips/vacations and don't have issues with anything. The clarity on e-books is extremely sharp too.

    Battery life when idle (no wi-fi on) is a few days. Using it heavily, I can get a number of hours out of it.

    MS Surface RT. I have one and my wife has one. Worked well for a year until she got an ipad air for xmas and she got me an ipad mini. Still ahve the surface machines and will probably use them intermittenly. They're nice machines that do what 99% of people need them to do, which is internet browsing, video watching, music listening and email reading.
