Q. I have been wondering which tablet is best. I don't want to spend to much though for an ipad, from what i have looked at I have been considering the Sony S, and Asus Transformer, or HP touchpad.
Which one do you guys think is best. I would like to use it for school, and web surfing etc.
If you guys have any other suggestions feel free to post it.
-Thanks
Also if you guys could list if from best to worst, that would be great.

A. Best depends on your preferences, but roughly ranking the ones you list...
#1 ASUS Transformer: The ASUS Eee Transformer (TF101) is extremely feature rich for under $400: Android 3.1, 10.1 inch 1280x800 IPS (like iPad, but bigger and higher resolution) display, up to 9 hours of battery life (16 hours if optional dock added), optional ability to dock with keyboard, 1 GHz Tegra 250 ARM CPU with 1 GB RAM, good array of ports (mini HDMI, SD, micro SD), preloaded Polaris Office 3.0 for editing documents (.doc), spreadsheets (.xls) and presentation (.ppt) files. Note, though, no 3G (however people report success in tethering it to smart phones).
Note that the successor to the TF101, the Transformer Prime, is available and should be seriously considered if within budget.
#2 Sony Tablet S: 5MP rear camera, 1280x800 TruBlack display, decent battery life (8.6 hrs per Engadget empirical results), decent processor, and a nice array of ports (micro USB, SD, and audio).
#3 HP TouchPad: Tablet lives are short enough already without buying one that's already no longer supported. However, if you find a great buy, HP has released its Android source, so perhaps the developer community will keep the TouchPad alive.
Also consider the Kindle Fire, Nook Tablet, Lenovo Ideapad A1, and the new Le Pan II.

What is the best $100 tablet and I want an answer not " I don't reccomend any!"?
Q. Simply give me an answer!
A. Good, inexpensive tablets include the Kindle Fire, Nook Tablet, Lenovo Ideapad A1, or the new Le Pan II. Any of those would be a safe bet. The least expensive of those is double your target, unfortunately. I'd stay away from all other budget tablets. Here are some that haven't held up to closer review:
