Looking for a tablet pc

[TheGreekTitan]

Thanks for the offer but I ended up getting approval from my home office to expense one

Good deal! There are much better tablets out now than the one I have. I noticed you were up next for the newbie sampler and was thinking about offering the tablet plus some cash but I think you're definitely better off buying new. We got my dad a Xoom for Christmas and he loves it. I'm sure everyone at said home office will enjoy. Good luck and happy shopping for your new toy. Hopefully soon I'll get in on the newbie sampler.

if you can find the HP Touchpad on barn burner special - jump on it! I picked up a a 16 gb just before xmas for $99. I picked my daughter up a 32 gb for $149. Absolutely the best deal I've ever made on a computer!. Tough to find now, but the deals are still out there if you look and have some patience.

...and I hear that HP just put WebOS out as open source. There's a decent selection of apps, but there's a good chance the market will now be flooded with them.

I got my wife an iPad and it's pretty awesome. I could get one but I honestly don't like the keyboard or mouse when I'm working in my remote desktop. I'm looking at the Asus Transformer and Samsung Galaxy at the moment. I'll have to check out the touchpad though. That's a screaming deal.

Any update on your search? I just bought my wife an 32gb iPad 2 for Valentines Day. What a machine?!? It's perfect for her, and she loves it. I think I'm more of an Android guy myself though. That new ASUS Transformer Prime looks pretty awesome. Very tempting.

That's exactly the one I got I like the Android's Flash capability and the keyboard docking station. I got it this week and have loved it so far. I'm trying to figure out the tether to my blackberry so I don't have to find hotspots

I'm jealous. That things a powerhouse. I think to set up a mobile hot spot you need to pay additional $$ to your phones service provider. Such a BS racket. Congrats!

I took the TheGreekTitan up on the cigars for tablet deal.

Sending some Top of the line Drug store Duchmasters in exchange, none of that cheap ass Phillie blunts from the gas station crap.

I'd read about tethering vs mobile hot spot but it doesn't seem to be cross platform. I found plenty on tethering an android phone but the only BB tethering seems to be through their Playbook tablet
