Does anyone here use one in/for school?My wife wants something lite and portable to take to school (rather then out big 15inch laptop) ,She says they mostly follow along on a online slides show... Will a tablet do the job? As far as I know there is no Microsoft word for tablets- but are there any good replacement apps that you can type reports on? Can you download and view/edit word documents?? Any input appreciated!
What about a Surface?
Anyone know which is best for schooling btwn the Microsoft surface, iPad 2 (air is more money then want to spend), or kindle fire hdx, (or Samsung tab 3) ?
What type of schooling? What type of work will you be using it for?
Mostly needed to download and view slides, and some online work.Would be a big plus if she can actually write a word document on it though... She hate when computers / tablets have a slow response - ESP to touch - so that has to be factored in as well...
Definitely the surface. I've got a surface and an Ipad 3 and from my personal experience the surface is much better (simply because you can do so much more with it, for example, you can edit two documents at the same time side by side).Or if you're fine with an 8 inch tablet there are loads of 8 inch windows tablet under $300.
Looking for a tablet any suggestions? for movies, web browsing and email and doing some remote desktop with teamvier and MS RDP and a good price.
Surface
SurfaceAny reccomdations of which surface? Is this a decent product?http://mobile.walmart.com/?wmlspartner=wlpa&adid=22222222228018175106&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=35604987756&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=50620430196&veh=sem#ip/25440663
This is the best deal if ur looking for the cheapest option.If you want to spend a bit more theres the surface 2 or the surface pro / pro 2.In my humble opinion its great.
