which proves my theory that people often think cheap=best and get cheated easily
you assume apple and other brands are overpriced and bad well while they are pricey they are worth the extra mile
micromax etc arent good buys especially for someone who has a higher budget
im happy buying pricey reputed brand items once in a few years because guess what the failure rate,service etc is worth paying for
you dont believe iball,micromax etc arent good,well check out the numerous posts warning people against buying their products after getting cheated
acer is a different story altogether
you want a better example,people will try and push people to buy a desktop over a high performance gaming laptop just because they havent ever owned a proper laptop and like to generalise like this
if you buy the correct product,itll last years
its sad and lame when people "assume" apple << chinese brands just going by specs,alot of research goes into these products
in this case,take the Yoga 2 why should the op buy some unreliable product when he wants a reliable laptop replacement
Yoga 2 is a tried and tested product and is worth it
notion ink is a risk

people have done it with the nexus 7 before but if battery life isnt your concern,the yoga 2 is a better buy overall unless you want an android specifically
Nexus 9 is also pretty well built and i suggest waiting for a bit if you want to go in for one because intial pricing is always high
check out nexus 7 as well if you want an excellent tablet at a good price,itll drop to atleast 14k in 1-2 more weeks mostly

as for notion ink,check the cons in this review
Notion Ink Cain price, specifications, features, comparison
I personally think android and ios tablets are waste of money. My friend recently purchased iball w32 . Its a full fledged windows tablet at 14k with sim slot 3g and HDMI out. Trumps ipad thousand times. Android and ios tablets are fancy consumer products until you encounter the awkward moment where the simplest windows task cant be handled by these. My 2 paisa.
Get Notion Ink.
Nice tab and get SD Card or External HDD

Better get a chrome book and enjoy your spend money more productively
Chrome as a OS has really improved in the past 2 months and the next update is due in about a month or so to match up for material design plus now you are getting all PlayStore apps I think it is worth a shot.adam??
Notion Ink Adam Android tablet quietly gets a sequel

yep but hes better off with a windows netbook or small laptop instead of a restricted chromebook

@op my sincere advice is -
since you want a laptop replacement,stick to reputed,reliable products instead of risky ones
in the end its up to you to decide but if i were you -iPad,Nexus,Yoga 2,Omni,Venue Pro 8,Surface Pro 3
anything else will just disappoint later on
the ones i mentioned are tried and tested,excellent build quality and support,good after sales,parts etc will be easy for future and very low failure rate compared to other tablets such as notion,iball etc

Android and IOS tablets are not a great replacement to tablets. If you want real productivity , then go for windows tablets.
Agreed.i agree but not worth over a windows laptop/netbook though

yeah right thats why my 10 year old 56k sony vaio has outlived 2 sager laptops
looks like someone loves small companies and risk
+1,and very much true.Agreed.
I just wish more people start to adopt chrome book so that every one can understand the true power of these small laptops.
I will be buying one soon enough.
+1 to Asus T100TA-DK005H
Asus T100TA-DK005H (Touch) Transformer Laptop cum Tablet
Pros: Windows 8.1 + MS Office Home Student 2013 License
32GB EMMC + 500GB HDD(On Docking Station)

If I had that 30k budget, i'd get this one only.
check out SP3 also ,it starts at 30k with an i3 cpu and 4gb ram
its easily available locally(atleast in Mumbai)
