CE00156A_specs11

You want a 10-inch tablet, right? But you don’t want to spend an arm and a leg on it. You’re fine with an arm OR a leg but beyond that, these tablet prices are too high in general—is that what you’re saying?

If so, you might consider this ViewSonic gTablet. It’s available today only for $270. Is it the greatest tablet in the world? No. Is it a good option for $270? Yes indeed. While its use of the cellphone-specific Android 2.2 operating system is a little behind the times, It’s got a nice feature set on the hardware side of things with a capacitive touchscreen and a dual-core processor.

Element 40-inch 1080p TV: $379 at Walmart

0855788002117_100X100Finding a 40-inch (or larger) TV for under $400 is pretty rare, but here we are. Walmart is selling a 40-inch 1080p model for $379, which includes three HDMI inputs, a 5,000:1 contrast ratio, and free shipping if you opt to have it trucked to your local store for pickup.

Speaking of pickup, bring one. Ha! This TV is big, is what I’m saying.

Aluratek LIBRE e-book reader: $50 at Buy.com (today only)

217328255If you’re looking to see what all the e-book hubbub is about, this is a decent jumping off point.

You’ll have to deal with a $20 mail-in rebate, and the lack of a wireless connection means you’ll have to shuffle books onto the device manually from a computer but other than that, you’re looking at an affordable and pocketable 5-inch reader with 100 classic titles preloaded onto it at no extra charge and a 32-gigabyte storage card that you can fill to the brim with thousands of additional titles.

The deal is good today only.

Seagate one-terabyte desktop hard drive: $47 at Amazon

519Qe1lgaGL._SL500_AA300_I’m so sorry about this. Hard drives are very boring. And few are more boring than desktop hard drives. It’s like, “Oh, a really light and fast solid-state drive? Hmm. Okay, I guess.” But that’s being generous.

So it’s with a heavy heart that I present you with this one-terabyte desktop hard drive that’s selling for a mere $47 on Amazon. That’s a pretty nice deal if you’re in the market for one. For the other 99.5% of you who aren’t in the market for a desktop hard drive, forgiveness please.
