I use it for surfing while on the couch and for recipes in the kitchen, and I also use it a ton when traveling since it fits easily in purse (though I guess that is not an issue you will have!) :)Ksamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991667611234163617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-208518140348131322013-01-13T08:22:01.063+01:002013-01-13T08:22:01.063+01:00Peter, that's a possibility if I move some thi...Peter, that's a possibility if I move some things around.

For use in the kitchen, I bought 6 clips designed for mounting 1/4-inch thick mirrors and use those to hold my tablet onto the door of one of the cabinets. The total cost, including the plastic tape I purchased to cover the screws so they wouldn't mar the back of the tablet was under $5. By mounting it to the cabinet it doesn't use up counter space and is less likely to be spilled on. I can send you pictures of the set-up if you'd like.Peter Hertzmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14816850042270467983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-84263966425378598302013-01-12T16:23:22.836+01:002013-01-12T16:23:22.836+01:00Wow!

I got a 16GB, since I don't need any more internal storage (I can always expand it with a flash memory). I also bought a bluetooth keyboard for blogging while traveling, and what's really useful is the folding plastic stand I got. It was something like $10, and adjusts to all kinds of positions.Bob Rossihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08349830722788278723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-75486105564617094452013-01-12T13:56:26.096+01:002013-01-12T13:56:26.096+01:00Enjoy your new tablet Ken.
