One of the people I know uses this as his work laptop, running Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook, Word, etc. (Of course, he's not running Android at that point...) The 'laptop' is a tablet in a case with a bluetooth keyboard. He uses this _at his desk in the office, next to a desktop computer._ (Because he can then take the work home with him, or bring it to a meeting.) Whether of not it's sane, it's being done. ;) Daniel T. Staal --------------------------------------------------------------- This email copyright the author.
