I've got an iPad and a Nexus 7. My last phone was an iPhone and my current phone is a Nexus 5. Both platforms have their strengths and weaknesses. The nexus "does everything" that an iPad does except stream video wirelessly to my TV. The 10" screen is an improvement when using chart apps as well as most everything else. That comes at a price though, weight. The nexus 7 is nicer to hold for long periods of time (like when I'm reading the Aubrey/Maturin novels) and I fear losing it or breaking it less so I carry it around more.
Unfortunately my Nexus 7 has a cracked screen (see above). It flexed a little too much when in my bag. The iPad doesn't flex. IOS is arguably the better platform if you want simplicity and don't want to "mess around" with anything. Android is better for those that like to tinker. And so on. Trade-offs. I don't discriminate! I like alllll the gadgets! Steve Suhana, C&C 32 Toronto On Wed, Feb 19, 2014 at 6:59 PM, bobmor99 . <bobmo...@gmail.com> wrote: > For you Androiders, check out MX Mariner.
