Cheap GPS 7" Tablet?

Hi,

Looking at buying a cheap GPS 7" tablet to go into a vehicle, must be Android v4+, capacitive screen, single core will do and must have at least 512Mb ram/4Gb internal storage.

Must be cheap as it is likely to get used and abused

Any suppliers out there that you know about? Will even consider a cheap 2nd hand one as long as the screen only has light usage marks.

The Hudl sounds as if it meets (and possibly exceeds) your requirements for a reasonable £119 http://www.tesco.com/direct/hudl/

I think you have highlighted the wrong bit. If you read the bit after what you highlighted it reads 'No Camera - 1.3Mega pixels front camera', I think the 'No' relates to the GPS and the 'Yes' you highlighted is relating to the G-sensor before it.
