Hi Geof I'm getting to grips with one at the moment I got it from Maplin. I found an App called Drop Box got a link to it on my Facebook Page. Basicaly it alows you to store files (your Callender on the internet, Photos, Music, Banjo Chords whatever) So you can up date your Appointments (Say) upload them to Drop Box which then keeps you up to date on your PC and or Laptop or vicea versa. The one I got has it own modem and you can if you fit it with a sim card use it as a phone. I just need to decide with whom to take out a sim card only deal with as the ViewPad7 is not locked to any provider. I happy with my Tmobile coverage but giffgaff have a good deal for sim only at £10 month with unlimited internet (it working off the O2 network).

My viewpad is loaded with Maps for satnav and thier are lots of free apps from Google. You could I think down load a book to read whilst waiting for your net pupil and the just have to have a copy of the Highway Code.

But when Jane asks you for a Newspaper and you pass her your View Pad instead that spider is not going to know what hit it!!
