Does this mean you'll be able to take it to bed with you, and post whenever you wake during the nght, and also post while you're having a lie-in in the mornings.
Very useful too for reading the papers while seated on the loo, I imagine.
Yep and Yep-this is from the PC-still fannying about
I've been toying with getting a tablet. Although I've got my laptop it would be very useful to have a tablet, just to have a backup. I didn't get one before Christmas as I'm hoping prices might come down a little. There's a bewildering range of models, sizes, and manuacturers to choose from. I think the Androids, like Kindle, seem to be the best. The netbooks look interesting too. Not sure how useful it is to have a separate keyboard.
£99 for Kindle Fire is very good value. That's the one with full Android operating system - full web access etc. I've been watching the Argos Home Shopping Channel and IdealWorld and the DealChannel. They've all been demonstrating lots of these models, every night.
The model these channels were pushing most heavily over the weekend was the JoyTab, with a separate keyboard, for £199, I think. Though the ones they push tend to be those where they have stock they want to move.
CatchUP TV is a cool app. It's like iplayer, but also covers lots of non-BBC channels too.

Where is the wheelbarrow?
Geoff it sounds very high tech
You have the paint-here is the barrow
Have installed an i-player app now-can watch tv in the toilet as well

This was on offer at Argos for £99- back to full price now
It seems to do a few tricks

The keyboard is a bit fiddly-have sent for a case and stylus pen from e-bay today that should make the use a bit easier
It all connects up with web.e-mail etc quite easy
Tablet??
