I am in the market for a tablet. I have an HP Touchpad running CM9. Im going to Mexico in a few weeks and will give it away to one of my cousins.

I have the Nexus 7, iPad, Surface, and the (smaller potential) iPad, as viable options. I also looked into Asus' Transformer line.

My Macbook is on its last legs. I purchased an iMac for home use earlier this year. I want to replace the Macbook with something equally as productive. I mainly use it for email and managing customer relations.

The Surface Pro entices me, but lacks concrete information. Nexus 7 has a great price, and I like Jelly Bean. It is a little smaller than I would like. The iPad is a solid piece of hardware, but im not the biggest iOS fan. With that said a cheaper tablet, bigger than the Nexus 7 and smaller than the iPad, would be great. I hope the smaller iPad can fill that niche.

Then I go back to the Surface... I'm tempted by the ability to load to apps on the same screen. The keyboard integration looks very slick.

Too many choices for me. As a consumer, I feel like the tablet market is what I dreamed of as a kid.

As a side note, I am unsure if the Surface Pro fits in with the rest of the group. It aims to be more of a "laptop" computing experience with a touch/stylus input method. Which I like, but am skeptical on the practicality of it.

I should wait a few more months...
