Looks like it's time to buy a tablet. I was using my friends full size Ipad but feel it's a bit too big for my needs so I am looking at a 7 or 8 inch model. To justify it I need to be able to deal with several of my computing needs. First and foremost I need to be able to use it for school including Powerpoint, Word, PDF, etc., secondly I would like to use it for mapping and gps like many of you do, and finally I would like to be able to have it interface well with my GoPro. I have been using a Macbook for many years and also have an Iphone but feel it might be time to break away from being locked into the Apple world, but I don't know if it's that big of a deal. I can get an Apple Mini for under $300 from Target right now and the Galaxy Tab3 is $199. I certainly don't want to spend more than I have to, especially since I don't know how well i can integrate a tablet into my needs. Any recommendations? I am also open to other options as well.
