Default Which tablet for 9 year old

My youngest wants a tablet or laptop for christmas, but also wants a go kart so we are looking at a cheap tablet so can get both.

Currently looking at Google Nexus 7, Sumsung Galaxy tab 7, or this http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mob...lourCode=BLACK as it has a bigger screen and flash player.

Thanks, already been reading them but wondered if anyone had any experiance with the Versus touchpad.
I'm inclined to go for the Nexus, but wondered if the larger screen would suit the boy.

Default Flash with Jelly bean OS

Flash works on both the Nexus 7 and Galaxy tab, even if they are running jelly bean OS

Here are the instructions to installing and running flash on a Nexus 7 with jelly bean


from the Google play store -download "Firefox browser" also "Astro file manager"

You then need to toggle the allow unknown sources in the security settings(this is temporary and you will put it back to disallow after finishing install)

Download from XDA flash 11.1 install it. here is a link to the latest version http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1931671

Use Astro to install the Flash Apk, which will be in the download folder

Run firefox and allow flash plug in

That is it

Return security to previous settings. You now have two browsers, Chrome which works great for the majority of websites and Firefox when, you need to use Flash
