Wow! These things are awesome!
I've never had a Tablet before, but a Thrift Store I sometimes visit had one of the RCA models for $24.99, used of course, but reset and good enough for all I thought I wanted it for. The brand new one of this one is only $50.
I figured I could use it as an MP3 player for my truck with an FM Transceiver that I have on it's way from Amazon. The newest model that searches for an empty station so that it does'nt suck.
Turns out it does so many things I could never have imagined! So far I have Maps of places I go saved, both street and satellite from Google Maps, so that I can view them while offline, and a Chess game, and of course my music and some Pics'.
I have now been watching videos on youtube about things you can do with your Andriod equiped tablet and there are some neat things.
I got it for $20 since the owner of the store used to be a customer of mine when I managed the Sporting Goods Dept. at a local Hardware Store, long ago.
I'm having a blast with it!
My Son had to show me how to use it, but I caught on quick, and now think I will find it quite useful.
I think more tablets are in my future. I also think my Mom would enjoy one, and if I see another affordable one down there, I'll get it for her. She's older, and I think she could get a lot of use from one of these, especially since she likes to stay in touch with my Son, and it would be easy for her to carry the tablet from room to room, rather than have to sit at her computer desk to get on her PC. She enjoys brain games and Chess and stuff like that too, so she'll like that part.
