Yeah, obscure Chinese shit. Nothing that I'd want to buy, even for $50.
I bought this adapter for the HP.

Found out from their site that it will work with my Moto X as well. I
had no idea the Moto X's USB was OTG capable. Doesn't do me much good if
I'm on-site and need to MAC Winbox into a router though. That's why I
bought the HP Stream. We'll see how it goes. I'm just tired of lugging
the laptop around.

I'm having some problems with my now almost 5 year old Asus
UL20 laptop that I use in the field. Still works fine, just
showing its age and starting to run like crap. But it's small
and light and the battery lasts nearly 5 hours while I'm
sitting at a site with the guys on the tower putting up radios
and stuff. I've thought about throwing some more RAM in it,
maybe an SSD and then reload everything. Or...
One of the guys just got an HP tablet. Not sure exactly which
one. I thought it was ARM based. But apparently it supports
USB OTG, which is cool, throw a USB ethernet adapter on it.
There's the HP Stream 7 for under $100. Quad-core Atom with
full Windows 8.1, 32-bit, but who cares. I think I'm just
gonna do that instead. Then I can still run Winbox,
SiteMonitor Manager for those old Base-1's out there and other
stuff that only works on x86.
Anybody know of something better?
