Missed out on the Amazon stock, but just found that Currys Outlet on ebay has some of the Note 8 left at this price. Currys website nor stores seem to have any left and because of that Amazon and John Lewis are no longer doing for £199. Get in there quick if you're after one.
You obviously haven't used both and compared.
clueless
I have used the Note 8 and think it's fantastic. I used to work for PC World as a student and have experienced the quality associated with Advent first hand. Absolute rubbish.
Actually the Tegra Note is only BRANDED with Advent but it's the same as the EGVA model in the states.
This might convince others that the Tegra Note 7 is indeed the most powerful 7" tablet currently on the market that also has note taking and drawing abilities.....
Performance review
So just buy a pen and a notepad then. Don't waste your money as its old tech
I don't agree with the old tech comment some of the processors in current generation industrial devices (HV monitoring equipment, defence vehicle system) are using processors designed in the 90's. I know because I design, develop and maintain such devices for a living. The benchmarks between the Tegra Note and Note 10.1 (which is slower than the Note 8.0) don't really sell it to me that there is a huge performance difference.
