Today I used the seven
inch tablet in anger to take notes during a four hour workshop
session this morning.
Whie it could be argued that in the way
I've set up the tablet I've basically created a netbook
style environment, or more accurately an environment like that of
the original
Eee netbooks there are a couple of key differences.
Data is saved to the cloud where
possible. This morning I saved it straight to Dropbox from epistle. Once the
workshop was over I headed back to my office and used Libre Office to
fix up the myriad typos and pretty up the layout for legibility and
then saved them as a pdf direct into evernote.
The other key point is it was a four
hour session. I took around four pages of notes. My battery was more
on less 100% when I started and just under forty when I finished –
better than a netbook, better
than my MacBook pro.
Size. Like a netbook it's light, and
hence easy to carry, And having Evernote on it it's easy to show
people related material in an informal chat afterwards and if
necessary email it to them.
So, looks promising. Will post an
update after a couple of week's use ...
