The current tablet craze (both iOS and Android) has me feeling like a cranky old man. Between my phone and my laptop, I have all the sizes I need covered. Seeing an HP Slate 500 on eBay for $200 though, I decided to take the plunge and see if it did something for me I wasn't expecting. Having tried the other tablets I thought Win7 might offer something more along my line of interest. While the OS was well adjusted for tablet (on screen keyboard, tilt, etc) I found myself defaulting to my phone before reaching for it. The consumer preview of Windows 8 provided better eye candy, and a better on screen keyboard but again fell by the side when in competition with my phone. When Lisa still preferred her phone over the tablet for reading kindle books I knew it was time to sell it. The only one who really got excited about it was Lila, but to be fair she also gets excited about cardboard boxes. I might try again when Windows 8 tablets are out, as this one wasn't a spectacular performer but for now I'm fine being a cranky old man.
