Check the Lenovo web site. They have some around $100 tablets and I believe that these are reasonably free from the adware which infects many of the cheap Chinese machines. http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/tablets/lenovo/a-series/tab3-8/?menu-id=tab_3_8 Dave

Everyone,
We're going to use some tablets in the museum as information kiosks.
I bought a fifty-dollar Amazon Kindle Fire 7. Going to return it. It's a nice tablet, but I found out that Amazon's version of Android limits a bunch of things that we would need for a kiosk mode. Nevermind the details of how/why; that's a long story. Bottom line is we need something with conventional Android.
I'd like recommendations for other sub-$100 Android tablets (the more sub- $100, the better). Performance is not an issue: all they have to do is run a browser. Android 5.x and minimal hardware specs is good enough.
