Default Tablet PC

Looking to buy a tablet pc, here is what I wrote on another pc forum but got no response... anyone here got some input??
Looking to buy a cheap tablet to hold me over until I can get a high end version when they all eventually hit the market. Am looking for one no more than $200.00, and need it to look at PDF, Powerpoint, Excel and word files, as well as watch videos and connect to the internet (3G wont be used, so only wifi.) Flash supported will also be a huge plus! Want a 7 inch one as it will be easier to transport IMO. Was looking at there two, or any other anyone suggests...

I'm not familiar with either of those. Why not get a cheap netbook with a bigger screen for a couple of hundred bucks while your waiting for the next generation of tablets to hit. Might be a better solution if your using word, excell, pp, etc.

Mike, you might look to see if you can pick up a nook color and then root it. I just looked at this a little bit this week and it seems like it may be the best andriod option for the price right now.
