    I am looking for a cheap (£200-£300) second hand TX for basic functions. It must have great battery life so how much would a new (extended?) battery be?

    Where is the best place to look? Will I even get one at this price? Are there any alternatives with other manufacturers?

    Specs:

    512MB RAM +
    20GB HDD+
    1Ghz CPU+

    Nice tips there guys.

    When I did a completed listings search on eBay they seem to go for £500+ even the TX1

    They also have some Toshiba R100s for £299
