I need this, right??? I have the Galaxy Note and have rooted it but honestly .. I use my iphone 4s 99% of the time. I also have the ipad and have been looking forward to what the ipad mini will be like. I have NOT bought the ipad 3 or the iphone 5 .. I am a gadgetaholic but not a sucker. Also have a rooted original Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 inch .. haven't used it in a long long time ...
I was watching a Samsung Note 10.1. At first I didn't see that there was also a 3G model. Once I saw that there was I am ready to buy one... WANT IT NOW !!! One thing that has me questioning this purchase is the problems with the pen. The pen is one of the main reasons I would have for buying this note other than my addiction. But if the pen doesn't work, may as well put up with my ipad until the problem is fixed.
Here is my MAIN question. Is it possible to use the pen on something like an excel spreadsheet and is the handwriting recognition anything like on a windows tablet where I can write my emails ?? Maybe I can search more videos but in case they don't answer my questions I don't want to jump the gun and purchase ... I have a few days off from work and would love to spend a day with it rather than ship it to my office ..

I can tell you that I just finished a complete round of budgeting at work using my Note 10.1 in Excel. Imported previous years spreadsheets (all formulas and formatting intact). Used OfficeSuite 6+ which allowed saving to uSD. Stock keyboard used also.

That's VERY GOOD to hear. Can you write on the spreadsheet?? Or just highlight or none of the above? I use Excel a lot ..
in my opinion ..
I'm not saying anything about the Note .. , " I don't have it , hopefully Next month :> "
but I think having many gadgets from the same category .. " like many tablets , many mobiles etc "
that makes yo work slower and unfocused ..
but maybe It's just my opinion .. , I never tried that and I might be definitely wrong .. =)

You are VERY CORRECT .. EXAMPLE, sometimes I can't remember what computer I was using and if I am looking for a file or email I might have to check more than one computer .. I try to save all important pictures etc to a thumb drive. With apple - everything is "in the cloud" and what I save on one computer saves to all APPLE computers. I still can't stop myself from buying sometimes.
Buy it!!! Its worth every penny wait till it updates to jelly bean!!!!

ORDERED IT ... not only am I a gadgetaholic, I am like a kid at Christmas. I want it NOW .. so it is coming OVERNIGHT tomorrow - I even have the day off so I can stay home from work and play with it .. I think that when I have this I -might- be able to sell my little Note ... For talking I have always preferred my iphone .. iPhone isn't good for much except telephone and camera .. that's all I do with my phone. The note was a little overkill for me -- but that could change once I have the Note 10.1
in this case I would suggest mixing systems ...I know IOS has pros and Android has pros too ..
so keep one IOS and one Android ..
like Iphone/Android tablet .. , Or android phone/Ipad ..
that would be good .. :>
yo can also use Drop box as a cloud to save your files between Android and IOS .. , and also PC .. weather it's MAC or windows .. " I'm not sure about mac but like 90% sure "
and .. hope yo enjoy it .. ^^
does drop box sync your phone book etc ?? Sometimes I carry a different computer every day - Macbook Air 13" / Samsung Slate 7 / iPad2 / iPhone4s / Lenovo << rarely / Galaxy Tab 7" / Samsung Note and COMING SOON the Note 10.1 ... YAY .. My Granddaughter benefits the most from my gadget purchases .. She is 13 and has an iPhone and an iPad and a tablet Laptop .. Don't think she is spoiled, she is deserving .. Scored 100% on her math FCAT ..

Hi,
im searchin for a new mobile... i wanted to buy it in the next 2 or 3 weeks, but there is a big problem:
i dunno what mobile would be the best for me :S
I am thinking about Windows mobile and Android ... The windows mobile phones i have used till now are quite nice, but no one really made me fully happy ... i always tried to port other interfaces and so on my lg ks20 and htc diamond.
i´ve seen that android has a quite nice interface with very good touch friendly options...
my windows mobile candidate would be of course the HTC Leo , what the android canditate would be is just open till now ...
I often browse in Wifi networks , like facebook, gmail, icq, etc. and therefor i am searching for an mobile with good browsing quality ... what camera there is ... i dont care about that crap ... just being comfortable in networks , chatting , sharing files and so on...
Hope you can help me ..
else any questions ? just post, i will directly answer.
See ya
Sallal
//EDIT: I saw now some androids and i think nexus one and desire are very good but , what is the difference between them ?
Hi,
In term of memory management Windows mobile is far way better and for the interface also you have a lot of ui for windows mobile that are now very close to the Android style that you are searching for(if not even better).
I first bought an HTC Hero and was very happy the first two months but then it became so boring because of that lack of programs for it.
Now I am on a Leo and I can assure you that the moment you will put this device in your hand,you will be impressed by his speed.
Hurry up before the HD3
what about the htc desire ?

Sense La Révolution for Windows Mobiles SPB Mobile Shell:

Here it is in a nutshell,
Android is the new kid on the block, rough around the edges, not fully functional yet, short on apps, in dire need of updates, but with the genuine potential to be an actual iPhone killer ( hence Apple vs HTC suit solely filed to slow down Android ). Android is on it's way, but not going to be great until, after whatever Android phone you buy now, is old and tired.
Windows Mobile is tried and true, tons of free apps, full bluetooth functionality, full Exchange and Office functionality, easy to sync, fully customizable to your needs, but it is what it is and will not get any better. Whatever you buy now, will not be upgradeable to Windows Phone 7 Series, and WP7S would appear to be that " make it or break it " for
Windows Mobile.
In short ? Android = up and coming, but not quite there yet. Windows Mobile = Already mature, but could be on the down slide soon.
If you are living for today, Windows Mobile hands down. Come this fall ? Phones with Android 3.0 ? Windows Phone 7 Series ? Who knows.
The Nexus One is Googles Android device made by HTC, The Desire " was " the Droid Eris, but has since been reassigned to the HTC branded Nexus One.
@die_Leuchte: Danke für die videos, ich hab mich entschieden / Thanks for the Videos , now ive decided what to take
@denco7: i know it is a nutshell, but if i see what android showed on mwc for example, it seems that it has millions of apps and is just now the iphone killer ^^
just crap what they are sayin ?

Add to that limited Bluetooth capabilities and ( important to me ) limited M$ Exchange and Office capabilities it just isn't mature enough yet to be a serious multitasking phone for business.
Don't get me wrong, I think Android is the future of Mobile OS' . WP7s is going to have to do a lot to convince me otherwise. And I am leaning towards an Android phone after Android 3.0 and WP7s come out, just from what I have seen of Android 1.5, 1.6, 2.0 and 2.1 on the Nexus, I just still don't think that it is capable yet.
so you think that if you would buy a smartphone now, you would choose winmo...
if you could buy it in 2 years , you would choose maybe android ... right?
Do not be fooled by a shiny interface just like I was.Besides what you are seeing on an Android phone is the Sense UI made by HTC.
If I am not wrong the Nexus one doesn't have the Sense UI.
I am not telling that Android(in reality Linux) is not a good phone.On the contrary you will find it with very useful applications but in some cases just like what happened to me you will not have a wide range of choice for the same application.
For Ex:If you want a Virtual Keyboard,because Android is still new you will have only 2 or 3 keyboards(maybe there is more now) to choose from but on Windows Mobile you have more than 15 competitors to choose from with years of experience in that field .
So,
Android is for you if you can be satisfied with what you have.
Windows is for you if you are thirsty of applications
Hope this helped
thirsty guy
well, i always need to get more apps to have another quit unuseful thing on my mobile, like wifi router or so
then i take the leo ^^
EDIT: @forcefield: i recieved an email , that swype for android is out your problem is solved now
Here is a quote from another german forum
there is no "better" one, some like winmo and some android more ...
before i buyed my new phone i thinked about the hd2 and the milestone... i choosed the milestone and i dont regret nothing !
looking at the amount of apps i would choose android because its just much easier and uncomplicated .. with more apps than windows mobile.
i dont know whats the difference between the desire and the nexus one , but you can wait until they get on the german market to see more information..
pointing on the battery strength maybe its disapointing but i have to be honest, its normally just between 1 and 3 days depending on how you use your phone.

i still think that windows mobile has more apps.. but the problem is , they are just widespread in the www.

I'm suprised that no one has brought this up, but, if you got a Windows phone, don't you always have the option of running Android on it? I don't think it works the other way around. Please, PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong.

Android proted to WM is still a port. It runs within WM and some of the features of Android don't work and some of the features of the phone won't work with the Android port. It will never be as fast or as smooth as Android running natively.

I would take the Leo, faster processor, bigger more beautiful display, more ram. The only plus for the Rhodium is the slide out keyboard.
But just remember that neither phone is going to be upgradable to Windows Phone 7 Series.
of course take the LEO!!!
I own Touch Diamond 2 (which is basically like TP2 without the slide out keyboard) and it's really great and everything. But then I also have access to Samsung Omnia II with 800 Mhz CPU and it's running so much faster and more smoothy. And the big display is insane!! Then go figure because HD2 even comes with 1 GHz!!!! IMO it would be stupid to buy the OLD TP2 with only 528 Mhz.....

No, there's no fully working Android version for any WM phone. They all have bugs and stuff not working.
Good day guys!
I've always used a laptop as my main PC, mainly because I can bring it to university, now I would like to build a desktop and would like to use a tablet to connect remotely to my new desktop and type any notes of documents directly on my PC.
As I would be taking notes/writing documents, it would be necessary to have a keyboard dock, I'm not too sure how the thing with docks work, if only some tablets can have them or if there are universal docks.
Additionally, it would be great if the tablet could play Full HD, or 720p at the very least
Price limit could be up to $500.
Thank you very much for your help everyone!
P.S.: One more thing, separately from the hardware, what is the best app available to do remote connection?

$500 + tax? lol well here we go, You didn't ask for screen size so I'll give some 7 in ones too.
All tablets have an HD resolution, but the only one that has Full HD is the Prime Infinity. To be honest each one has a great screen. Some tablets come with a dock that's is meant for them (Asus Transformer Prime and Galaxy Note 10.1) but each tablet also can be paired with a Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse if you want. Also you can use a USB input dongle with the Note and Prime so that you can use a regular keyboard too (kind silly though =D).
1) Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 in specs http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_10_1_n8000-4573.php

Best Remote connection app is TeamViewer 7 Here's the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.teamviewer.market.mobile&hl=en, and here's the program you install on your PC http://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/windows.aspx.
For me it works pretty much with lag doing light task. So typing and make notes should be a breeze. However, you may experience lag if you are trying to watch a movie on it. I got lag when I tried it out, but I think it is because the GPU on my device (Galaxy Player 4.0) is not powerful enough. These device either have Mali-MP 400, Tegra 3 or Tegra 2 which are far superior. So I hope this helps you, and if you want I try and post reviews of each device.
Wow! Thanks a lot! I wasn't expecting such a detailed response!
From the suggestions you gave me I had been looking at the first three, the other two look really good too! I had been leaning mostly towards the Asus, although the Note also looks tempting, I'll have to do some thinking.
I've also had the galaxy tab on my watch, but it looks like the Asus is better.
Thank you!

You can get a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 refurbished on Amazon for $340. This is what i use, it has amazing battery life and a very clear screen! If you remote connect to your desktop it will waste a bunch of battery, but what you can do is type your notes on your tablet and sync them with Dropbox so they will automatically be shared with your desktop. Dropbox is AMAZING! I highly recommend it if you haven't checked it out!
Hello Everyone,
Yes, I know the dreaded topic! I figured I would post and go search, if I find everything I will delete this!
I am about 6 classes from finishing up my Associates Degree with my GI Bill, yay for free school!
I am in school for IT and am specializing in Cisco so far. I interact with a bunch of pdf files, websites and videos for studying this. I also use ebooks for my various core classes that I can find the class books for online So i am looking for a tablet to read and study with first and foremost.
Secondly being the technology guy I am, I would love a tablet that works well with forums. I often find myself fighting with mobile forums on my phone and just can not stand it. I also love to watch/stream shows and anime. Maybe emulate a snes game here and there.
I also do not need a surface 3 pro, as i have an i7 laptop with 16gb of ram. So this tablet is strictly for the above stuff, of course there is a possibility of using it to send an email and facebook messages but thats nothing special.
A list of things I am sure I would be asked if I did not list them:
10 inch tablet preferred
battery life important
expandable storage(sd card)
I would prefer android
lightweight yet sturdy and wellbuilt
decently fast
the above list are things i figure are important to state.
Anything I may have missed I am sorry, just ask and I will respond!
Regards,
V
I would suggest the Samsung Galaxy Tab S, or the Nexus 10 if you don't mind that much about external storage, maybe a refurbished Nexus 10 would be cheaper. Tablets with SD card slots aren't very easy to find these days.

Hey there! Hmm.... Well i've used a lot of android devices starting with Samsung galaxy Mini then HTC One X to Samsung galaxy S4 and ending with HTC One which i still own and love a lot.. so im not new to amdroid and i really like the system so much. I decided to by a tablet and samsung galaxy tab s 8.4 was the one till i saw dell venue 8 pro in a review. I really cant decide which is better choice for everyday use like surfing web and watching movies... May be few photo edit ( I used to use photoshop touch on android perfectly and had no problems with selections even on my 4.7" screen )? What i really like on the venue is that i can run programs like visual studio on the run and its easy to go with.... A full computer but im afraid of windows on a screen small in size! Also i have a nice laptop so i want ur opinion about a good tablet not a laptop replacement!
Simply Windows vs android, who wins? Ty in advance
Good question. As a windows user I would prefer that. What s the price difference?

I would suggest that you go with Windows since you are going to use it with programs like PS. On the other hand you are a proficient user of Android OS and you are used to controls.
Break it this way:
Price = you can save on the device to invest money in new apps
Performance = spend a little more on the device and save some time while waiting apps to respond your actions

u r right ^_^ thats why i really look for the best performance before i check its price and i know alot about android system and i can do much with it, actually everything other than office. i download my movies using bittorrent for android but i dont know much about windows on a touch tablet with 8' display thats why i wanted your opinion guys im really exited about the idea of full windows the only problem with the dell is that it dosnt have 3G but i think a usb modem will do the trick ... so if u were me u would go with dell? ^_^
thank u anyway <3

Ok, so here you go. If you think that both devices will be performing well enough for you in terms of RAM, ROM ,CPU and GPU then I would suggest you to go with Galaxy Tab S 8.4. For me Dell Venue has not enough resolution with 1280 x 800 at ONLY 189ppi. I think that if you are doing some creative work with pictures or videos then Galaxy's massive 1600 x 2560 Pixel, 360ppi will give you a huge advantage in terms of reviewing your work.
Personally I am not fan of tablets, so I consider Tablet as a waste of money. In case if you will be using tablet as a tool for presenting your portfolio (perse) then I will consider this as an investment towards your future.
I've found this on Youtube and it was used for another tablet. Apparently , it installs Windows 8 on an Android tablet and someone could back up the Android partition in case said person wanted to get back to Android.

Has anyone tried this on their Note Pros yet?
I am not enthused about win 8 on any platform.

... didn't even know it was around... well, maybe I'm being unneedfully suspicious, but there's lots about this ( I watched the video ) that doesn't quite work...
... how Windows 8 is running on whatever chipset is in his tablet escapes me. My gut instinct is to say it's in some sort of virtualized container, but ...
... I noticed at the end of the video there was virtually no demonstration of how it performed. did the touch screen work? Was it laggy?
... anytime I'm just clicking away and letting software from who knows where just fly on to my device, well, I need to have my head examined.
It would be super cool if this was legit and produced a functional way to swap between OS's; I'm just not buying it for now based on what the site and video is showing.

Echo the opinions of others when I say I have absolutely no desire to ever own a windows tablet.
The website in question though just screams STAY AWAY to me. It's clean . . too clean . . there's no testimonials, no compatibility lists, and no support FAQs or forums of any kind to allow one to see a history of testing and interaction with users. For me, support is often a big deal and that should especially be true for a product such as this where you're potentially going to softbrick your device when you repartition it. While I'm sure there would be a way to get back to stock I'm not the least bit interested in finding out . .

I'm between Android and Mac/iOS myself. Wherever the art geared tech flows, I follow, but that's just me. I don't see the point of Windows tablets myself, but if factors changed, I'd jump only with the other options had nothing to offer me anymore.
Don't even need Office anymore. Just get Libreoffice, which got a heavy UI overhaul recently. I just found it as a curiosity. I still remember running a virtual machine of 2000 on the Note 10.1 , and it was slow as can be. I'm not sure how well virtual machines run on the Note Pro, but I doubt anything beyond XP would run well.

... how Windows 8 is running on whatever chipset is in his tablet escapes me. My gut instinct is to say it's in some sort of virtualized container, but ...
... I noticed at the end of the video there was virtually no demonstration of how it performed. did the touch screen work? Was it laggy?
... anytime I'm just clicking away and letting software from who knows where just fly on to my device, well, I need to have my head examined.
It would be super cool if this was legit and produced a functional way to swap between OS's; I'm just not buying it for now based on what the site and video is showing.

I agree with all your points. I found the site and a lack of an actual forum to navigate to be unfortunate, because I'd like to experiment with the software. I might sacrifice my outdated Captivate to see how this works.
That website is completely fake. DO NOT USE.
We've discussed changemysoftware.org several times before on XDA. It's fake.
