Title: Ipad 3 or Asus T700 infinity
Post by: Pterrydactyl on October 19, 2012, 09:56:52 pm
Trying to make a decision, and I need some help.

What are you guys experiences with android tablets compared to Ipads?

What kind of phone and laptop do you have? If everything is apple, get an ipad, otherwise, get something else. I have heard that the icloud thing is pretty cool, but is useless unless everything you have is apple.

Why not spend half the money and get a small laptop which can do twice as much.

I've decided on the Infinity t700.  The reason, I need a tablet instead of a laptop, is I need something very light and mobile to use on set.  I need something to load my Set Layouts, Lighting Diagrams, scripts, and production photos onto.  Right now, I carry about 4 different notebooks with me on most productions, mainly because they fill quickly, and I need information from them.  This could negate that, plus give me a way to easily take notes in class, and something to do on the Train to/from school (instead of just sit there and look out the window as we pass the old fire station with the "for sale" sign on it that I always fantasize about buying and turning into a studio).

Or maybe a Ghostbusters HQ.

Ever since I started riding the El, I've imagined buying the firestation to turn into a ghostbusters HQ, but I think the only way i could justify it, is if I made it into a studio or something.


Also, it looks freakin close to the one from Ghostbusters, it's circa 1940/1950s, and is an all brick 3 story building.

You should buy the fire station and turn it into a tablet.

Ordered the tablet this morning at 1:22am my time, Amazon Prime has a free monthly trial, for 2 day shipping, or 3.99 for 1 day.  Went with 1 day, should be here by 6pm today (according to when I ordered it).
