Re: Tablet PCs - recommendations from frequent travellers

Bought one for the wife and am now in trouble for "borrowing" it too much.

It is very nice and in many ways better than my portable but it is surprising how many web sites out there just wont work due to flash compatability.
Once you crank the brightness down i easily get 10hrs out of it.
Like others i have a wifi version And simply use my phone as a mobil hotspot.

The new kindle fire when it actually arrives in europ may be a better bet foe some.

Re: Tablet PCs - recommendations from frequent travellers

Ok, so the whole iTunes thing... If I set my location to the uk will it stop offering me useless German and French stuff or is it ip based and do I just have to suck it up?
