Tablet PCs and Microsoft

Jochen Fromm-5
I have bought a new Tablet PC this week, a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1) running Android. What kind of tablets do you use? I assume iPads ? I heard Microsoft slides in a crises because Windows 8 is not selling well among business customers and normal consumers buy iPads or Android tablets instead of Microsoft PCs.

Arrggh , but you can't  type on these iPads and Android tablets. It is of course crisis, not crises. Can you connect suitable keyboards to Android tablets?

This is what I have, I usually use it with my Nexus 7.  It works well:

Keep us informed on how you like the Galaxy Tab. I keep debating between an iPad or an Android tablet (or maybe even a MS Surface). I want to do some development for a tablet platform, but would like to actually use the platform that I develop for. The idea of a single vendor specifying that the only way to install software on your own device is to go their store really pisses me off, but then hardware wise, the iPads are really solid.

And speaking of keyboards, I have heard that they work well on iOS, but you can't use a mouse or trackpad - WTF? Apparently, you can't even run any software to add such capability to iOS without "jailbreaking" it. What a bunch of crap.

Feeling rather curmudgeonly today :-)

Thanks, interesting. Is this the Nexus which caused all the trouble and hassle with Google?
