Filing Flight Plan
Ok,
My 10.1" Thinkpad Android Tablet is on the way out. It's been hit by a common design flaw with the power button not working. Also, the unit is about 1.5 yrs old and is starting to show it's age. It is NVidia Tegra2 based and the GPS has always been flacky in it. So it's time to upgrade.
Normally when I fly, I use my Android phone, a Google Nexus 3.7" unit. On the longer X-Country flights I would bring the 10.1" Tablet. My plan is to buy either a Nexus7 or Apple Mini this summer to become my Aviation Unit of choice.
Due to getting the N7 or Mini, I'm looking at all OS options for the larger tablet. My main use would be Surfing, Email, and the occasional Aviation app.
I've started looking but there are a lot of options. I've started looking at the Google Nexus 10, Asus TF300, Asus TF700, and Microsoft Surface Pro. I'm leaning toward the Surface Pro, but not quite sure. I do use Win8Pro on my desktop.
Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Michael
