You can write code, you can help out other users, submit bug reports. Ubuntu has a great wiki page as to how you can contribute and many other open source projects do as well. And really the best way you can contribute is to get involved in the community, spread the word. That said, when I see a cool open source project, like the OLPC project I cant help but support it with my money. The Google Android OS is another one of those projects. I got my Nexus One about six months ago and I love everything about it. I love that it runs Linux, and supporting a business model based off open source is perfect for me. Two apps that I really love are Call Track (records all your calls onto your Google calendar) and SMS Backup (records all your sms messages to your email).</rant>

So now I am looking at getting a tablet, I am thinking of getting the Archos 101 internet tablet, any other ideas lazy web?
