Yes, I had an Android tablet once with a keyboard. I did not like the keyboard, 
but did not mind the Android itself. I sold it, because with having my iPhone, 
I did not use the tablet enough to keep it.

Subject: Re: Apple versus android

I have Apple devices and a Samsung Galaxie Android tablet. I like my Android 
tablet because I feel like I am using a little laptop when I use it with a 
Bluetooth keyboard. If you are familiar with Windows, some commands can be 
transfered over. some  examples: 
Alt f4 closes a program. 
If I am in a Word processing program, I can use shift with the arrow keys to 
select text. 
Control c and control v can be used for copying and pasting. 
Control with left or right arrows can be used to move by Word. 
I would like to point out that Most Android devices are different than the 
Kindle Fire because they use the Talkback screen reader instead of Voice View 
on the Kindle Fire.
