I'd say so... I have a Slate and it's VERY durable, I've had it dropped quite a few times and it still works. Also, the full keyboard is fantastic if you like to text. Good battery power if you turn down the brightness and backlight timer, will basically be usable all day.

I saw the ebay ting where yu have the 35% offer .. the original cost bein 199$ rite...
but i think yu can get it 4 100$ and less than tat.. so chec out.. try it in yur locality and c..! cyaaa..
