Windows 7 even



I saw they also did an AOPA app for the iPad that looked pretty slick.

Surprised they did not leverage Windows 8 which is designed for tablets. I've played with this product on an earlier tablet offering. It was pretty slow and, I thought, a bit cumbersome to use. The i5 should help the performance.

Competition is good. I suspect I'll be using my iPad and Nexus 7 for awhile.

Yeah, until there is some major advance, I will stick with the Nexus 7. It's everything I have ever wanted in a tablet.

I've never had the desire to run Windows software on my tablets. IMHO, tablets are for data reception/absorption, and most Windows software is for data creation.

Although I must admit that Win8 is pretty cool on a touchscreen machine, so these two worlds are starting to blend.

I know that was a typo but it made me laugh remembering this...
