Need help with what Android tablet to get.

So I've been looking at tablets recently, and I heard about the Asus MeMo/Google tablet that's supposed to be manufactured by Asus. It seems like a dream tablet, a Tegra 3 tablet for $200. That's definitely within my price range, but I want a 10 inch tablet. The Transformer Prime is way too expensive, and I don't really want a Tegra 2 tablet.

However, I saw that the Toshiba Thrive is on sale (Toshiba Thrive Tablet With 10.1" HD Multi-Touch Screen, 16GB Memory, Android 3.1 OS, Dual Cameras & Bluetooth!). This looked like the perfect tablet for me. Nice screen, a bit bulky, FULL SIZED USB port (Huge huge plus), and ICS will be available soon. I don't want to regret my purchase once Google announces their tablet, but I want one now and I don't want to wait months and months for a tablet that might not even exist. So should I just go ahead and buy the Thrive, or wait for Google's tablet? The Thrive is looking really attractive right now, the only downside is that I don't want a tablet that'll be outdated by the time I get it. I'll probably upgrade in a few years though, or whenever I save up enough.

Help would be appreciated! Thanks.

The new tablets would be announced by June, when they do that, prices of all current tablets will drop. Just don't expect to get everything you are wishing if you continue of skimping. Buy the best tablet you can buy at the moment so you won't regret.

You're right, thanks.

The Thrive is a bit of a tank, keep that in mind. I own the Transformer Prime and it fits all my needs. It's all about determining what you'll most use it for and then determine what's best.
