I have an Archos 101 g8 tablet which I use in the kitchen to display recipes. It has a kick-stand which makes it useful for this kind of thing.

It's also hackable - I have bodhri Linux running as a second operating system on it. It also works nicely as a uPnP/DLNA player to keep the kids busy by streaming cartoons from the network drive (and can play them out to the TV too through the HDMI port).

It turned out to be a lot more useful than I though it would.
