Mrs. Weldangrind bought the same tablet this week; she got a super deal on CL. I haven't played with it much, since I use my BB Playbook. The power and speed of these tablets amazes me.

I debate getting an iPad Mini as it has so many uses in aviation, but I'm too cheap.

I've been wanting one for quite awhile. I tried to get my shop laptop replaced with a tablet but they felt that I wouldn't be able to download new software to our equipment. So, I ended up with another, albeit much lighter, one.

I showed the boss what I can do with this one and now he's thinking the laptop wasn't such a smooth move.

I bet you are 45-55 Cheesy?

Can anyone identify the bike? I've always thought it was a Z1.

I like those Samsung tablets, was checking one out in Staples. They are almost identical to my Samsung phone, just bigger .

If I could pry it out of my daughter's hands, I'd tell you how it performs.

Well, I'm on China Riders while listening to the local NPR station on TuneIn. Just booked airline tickets, rental car, and hotel for my next bizniz trip while sipping coffee and munching a cinnamon roll at the kitchen table.

Pretty easy.

I don't have the coffee and cinnamon roll option with my tablet.

While not as nice as heated seats, it's an option well worth the price.

Spotted south of PV, Mexico. Happened to be where the original Predator was filmed.

That's an awesome looking Ranger!

Add a 4 cylinder turbodiesel and a 5-6 speed manual transmission and that would be a dream truck! :P
