Guys,

My cousin wants to buy a tablet with the sole intention of watching TV shows, movies etc while traveling. What tablet would you guys suggest he buy?

His main requirement is that it should support a 1TB 2.5" external HDD through USB. He has loaded all the stuff he needs on this drive.

Other requirements:

10.1" good quality screen

decent speakers

Good battery life

Budget: 25k

He doesn't mind spending extra but would lilke to limit it to 25k.

A few options i've suggested:

Toshiba Thrive 10.1

Acer Iconia A500

Can you guys suggest something better? He definitely doesn't want a 7" tablet so the Playbook is out. The Ipad doesn't support external HDDs so that is out as well.

THanks for the suggestions.
 
Well, apparently the power output of a tablet isn't sufficient to power a 1TB hdd. Any other storage devices which use less power but can store large quantities?

Are you referring to the Transformer Prime or the older Transformer 101?

Any links would be helpful.
