purely a indulgence, been thinking about getting one, and i was wondering if any of you had experience with them, and what your thoughts or recommendation were

no experience with a tablet, but I'd recommend the biggest and most expensive you can afford.

Ebay might be a good idea too, they're cheap on there.

Dual boot sounds good.

The next version of windows (already???) is going to support tables out of the box. How you get it on there is another matter, usb most likely.

Looks like it's to be avoided for a month or two just yet. Let the software catch-up with the hardware.

Still better than iPad with no flash. Steve jobs has yet to shit that out of his arse and into apple iDevices.

I know a fair bit about them Pub,
A few of us have them in the Office, and we have been testing a few for Mobile Till Systems.

I will have to get some Makes and Models for you when am back in the office, or ill have a little look through my emails in a mo and see if i have kept them.

The best one thats going around the Office is a Windows 7 Tablet.
It has next to no Internal Memory and relises solely on the SD card (OS is installed on internal Memory),
Buts its a Full copy of Windows 7, So all your favorite programs are accessible,
Its Multi Touch and works wonders.

What do i hate! is the onscreen keyboard, and how at times your prompted to use the keyboard,
Its not been mastered as well as the Iphone keyboard prompts on the screen when needed if any of you have any familiers with that.

Do you have any Budget in mind?

Leave it with me to get what info i have an ill post back with some Makes, Models, and personal Reviews
