If you don't get a new tablet for Christmas, it may not be a bad thing. The first quarter of 2012 should see several improvements in these devices. TabletPCReview is reporting on these upgrades. The biggest is the move from dual-core to quad-core processors. Both of the leaders in the $450+ field, Apple (iPad3) and Samsung (Galaxy), will have new hardware and operating systems soon.
Then there's the lower priced options under $200, Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet, if all you want is video/book content and internet access this might be the better choice.
I'd like to see a Tablet designed expressly for students (high school, college, life). Here's my shopping list. What would YOU add?
- 4G option
- Note taking software
- Homework / Calendar software
- Shared phonebook, textmsg, voicemail with my phone
- Digitized Pen (for classes that need illustrations in the notes)
- Cloud storage for electronic handouts
- GPS for campus maps
