The Tablet Tavern

If we don't keep this thread going people will stop buying tablets

A tablet is in-between. I feel it's more of a luxury than anything else

 

[Codegerm]

Is this the one without the SDcard slot

The Nexus line doesn't have SDcard slot (phones or tablets), that is why I went with the ASUS Memo Pad HD7 instead.

I agree. I've never felt the need of having a tablet, unlike a smartphone.

Anything larger than a 7in tablet, and I just would rather go to my laptop. It isn't heavy, has a full keyboard with number pad and is 15.6 widescreen.

 

[wyndslash]

my laptop isn't that good xD

 

[wyndslash]

All this waiting for the new nexus line is driving me nuts

 

[breadnatty08]

Mine is kinda a piece of crap but it gets done what I need it to do. Just wish it wasn't so darn heavy!

My fun with my tablet yesterday was keeping Google at bay. The new Google play services (the puzzle piece one) side steps carriers and updates Google's apps, even when you have auto app update turned off in the play store. It also puts a device administrator entry in. I disabled play service and then the updated Google apps started complaining about missing component, and so I rolled them back to the previous version. I found it annoying that it was updating apps I don't even use.

I want a tablet but not windows.

That is why i like Android tablets.They aren't Windows ones...

I have had my tablet for a week and haven't even touched my laptop except to update the Linux distro I have on it. I am running Carbon on it with Faux123's kernel.

Ouch! Hey watch where you poke that

 

[wyndslash]

But it felt good, right?

 

[Revenant Ghost]

I think the forum is in need of some coffee right now.

 

[wyndslash]

It's the middle of the afternoon

 

[Revenant Ghost]

It's the middle of the afternoon

Well, it's 2:30 in the morning over here. And there's nothing wrong with drinking coffee all day.

 

[wyndslash]

i guess not

Spoiler

 

[Codegerm]

I can drink coffee anytime. Had a cup before bed even.

 

[wyndslash]

I enjoy it most in the mornings

 

[shelliewnj]

Coffee!!! Lol I almost always have a cup in my hand in the morning, and usually in the afternoon. And sometimes in the evening...
On another note, I am also looking forward to the nexus announcement, Wynd

 

[wyndslash]

Heya shellie I wish I could get both a chromebook and a nexus 10. It's not really a question of money but practicality
