Hey John, there was another post that mentioned this in use with an autopilot system. I was going to pick up a tablet this weekend and wanted some more info. Can you point me in the right direction?
I think the guy is using a "Archos" tablet which are not as popular in the USA as in Europe. Personally I would get a Nexus 10 if I wanted a big screen or a Nexus 7 for a smaller screen. Both are available here: https://play.google.com/store/devices?feature=corpus_selector What did/do you plan on getting?
I'm looking at a couple different ones and don't really have a for-sure favorite as yet... http://androidcommunity.com/asus-eee-pad-transformer-announced-10-inch-tablet-with-detachable-keyboard-20110104/ http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/GT-P5113TSYXAR Any thoughts?
I don't have any thoughts on those tablets because I've never really looked into them, maybe Nexus or one of the other guys knows something and can comment. The reason I would go for a "Nexus" tablet (or phone) is because they run stock Android and not some proprietary user interface and all kinds of crapware. If you've ever owned, or worked on, a Dell, HP or other major manufacturer's computer you know about crapware and all that junk that needs to be removed, and is sometimes even not removable. A lot of phones and tablets are like that and I don't want that junk and I prefer to do the modding myself but this is just my own personal preference.
