John, I've used a Microsoft Surface (first version) that does all of that. Will use any available Wi-Fi connection, automatically connects to known ones, does have only one USB port but I use a plug-in four port hub nowadays, so that I can add a mouse and keyboard. Standard wall outlet power connection, but I don't think it could recharge from another USB source (never tried to). If you have a Microsoft account you'd be able to upload the photos to your One Drive from it. HTH

I want one that does NOT require me to have a cell phone account & a data plan. WiFi is Ok. 2. I want one that will let me plug in a USB thumb drive & download the photos to the tablet/pad or that will allow me to plug in a SDHC card with the photos on it. 3. I want one that recharges either from a wall wart or USB (or both). 4. I *HATE* touchscreens, so it should be easy to clean grubby fingerprints off the screen. I welcome your recommendations. -- Science - Questions we may never find answers for.
