Default Those who have android tablets what to do?

Android tablets are selling as fresh bread because they are cheap and one
can do email and gamming. No one complaints about android but there are
people with windows tablet surface and all-in-one with monitor to go outside
that aren't happy with their system just because ms is always loading
security updates without warning and workers need stable system and storage
space to fill with business files and email contacts of clients. That's why
lots of people prefer android tablets and smartphones, they are reliable and
safe to connect into web services, can do almost windows does except text
processing and 3d games. Of course we can't compare android with windows in
terms of real world business software. Now I think most people aren't paying
attention to this tools we have available to help in many areas of our life.
I think tablets need to time to rule the technological world.

No, I haven't, nor have I received a patch for my Android (4.4.2)
device.

Interesting links. Would be even more interesting if you had anything to
add personally. ;-)

Yes, I avoid anything Android (Google).
Apple tablets are very expensive
and Windows tablets almost non-existant.

Recently I looked at e_readers, smartphones and tablets,
to see what could be useful for me and how in addition to my desktop
(or not) and how much it would cost me.

Finally I decide to spend money on a laptop.
I waited till an attractive offer came along and now I have a laptop.
It is intended for Windows 10 and LinuxMint (main OS).



I have a Dell Venue tablet, running Android. It was very inexpensive,
and works very well for e-mail and reading Kindle books. It's very
small and light and therefore easy to travel with. Small. light,
e-mail, and Kindle is essentially all I want when I'm traveling.

I just bought a Lenovo Tab 2 A10 tablet. I have a Nexus 7 which I use
almost exclusively for reading (mostly in bed!). A tablet is just so
handy!!!

(I also have a laptop, a tower, an all-in-one, and a smartphone. :-))
