IM On Tablets

Hello everyone,

I'm just wondering if anyone uses a tablet to do IM? Just curious. I've ordered a new tablet and I was thinking maybe it'll come in handy for more than just email and web browsing.

    I enjoy my Ipad for checking stats, cruizin forums, emails, ect. However it is still limited in what I can do! But its great when your out and about! Never hurts to ad another gadget to your tools

      That's what I figured. Just for checking stats alone would be good. Great point. Can't wait until it gets here.

    Great subject!

    Has anyone found a tablet you can use outside in direct sun?
    I have tried a few of the screens they have which are suppose to shade it and they do not work.

    Easy to read a nook or kindle in full sunlight but I have NEVER found a laptop nor now a tablet which you can.

    Anyone who finds one I am happy to PP you $10 to show my gratitude.

      I know exactly what you mean. It's weird that you have no issues using a laptop or tablet in bright lights indoors, but the minute you get into that sun...all is lost.

    It all depends on what you want to use it for, I use mine to browse forums or monitor campaigns but not for creating campaigns

    Tablets imo good for looking up your stats and browsing forums. Now creating campaigns and such stuff should be left to the computer.

      I don't currently have one as to me they seem to be, for the most part, glorified entertainment devices.

      I wouldn't use them for building campaigns but checking stats could come in handy, although I'd be a little frustrated to check stats and not be able to do anything about them, but that's just the control freak in me.

      However, I do have a friend who does a lot of offline consulting work and uses his iPad as a mobile presentation, to show clients real world data and results.

      They definitely have value in a business context if used the right way.
