Hi, pat I am on the android list smile. My mom bought me the tablit for Christmas from amazon. She spent 313 bucks on the 64 gb model. No I didn't ask her how much she spent she gave me a rough idea so I would be able to tell my clients who might be interested in this device. Here is the link on this device from del. http://www.dell.com/us/p/dell-venue-8-pro/pd this will do everytning you could want. It is a wonderful device. Going to pair a keyboard with it later and put window-eyes on it. I have not done that yet because I wanted to get a feel for how the touch screen worked in windows with the screen readers that supported touch. I wrote a long message about this subject explaining how I think window-eyes could do it better and be different. Some times being behind is better because if gives you a chance to look at what the other guys are doing and figure out a way to do it better. This is where google and talk back missed the boat. They didn't look at what voice over was doing and try to be better they went a completely different root altogether. On the other hand the support you get on the touch screen with jaws feels too much like voice over and its jestures and are easy to perform if rather complex. See my message on this subject. Hth
