Is the price of their toys! #Post#: 3791-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tablet computers By: walktall Date: January 14, 2013, 2:08 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I wouldn't use it as a camera, not pocket sized. I wouldn't use it to play MP3's on the move, to bulky. It's to small to watch a film. I use photo editing software and a mouse is the best tool for this and having a large screen so you don't keep zooming in and out. Having not used a device without a real keyboard, I don't know what it is like for creating/editing documents/spreadsheets/databases. Also the files need to be able to be sent to & from other people using other systems, so need to be in a standard format. #Post#: 3793-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tablet computers By: tarmacjohn Date: January 14, 2013, 2:45 pm --------------------------------------------------------- [quote author=walktall link=topic=188.msg3791#msg3791 date=1358194085] I wouldn't use it as a camera, not pocket sized.

I will have to poke xJammmzy to post on here and tell you about his Nexus. He seems to be on it all the time, though I am not overly sure doing what. Probably some thing to do with minecraft. I think it's a touch smaller than an iPad, but I don't have one in the house to compare any other features to. @Bear and Ragged.. *amused* ;D I hadn't noticed that bit of humour on the fleabay page until you pointed it out :) #Post#: 3797-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tablet computers By: walktall Date: January 15, 2013, 3:50 am --------------------------------------------------------- [quote author=SangueG link=topic=188.msg3796#msg3796 date=1358235145] (Couldn't get the 'quote' thingy to work this morning, probably me) [/quote] Are you using an ipad ::) :D ::) ;) [quote author=tarmacjohn link=topic=188.msg3793#msg3793 date=1358196318] Yeah, but apart from those small problems.
