I'm considering buying a Viewsonic G tablet, rooting it, and using VEGAn-tab to make it usable. I'm fine with the thought of using it over my apartment WiFi connection since I can control that... but I would love to have the option of taking it out to Starbucks or something like that and using the connection there.
That having been said what would be the best way to secure the connection there to prevent someone snagging my Facebook login, Twitter details, or banking information if I was dumb enough to try and log on to a banking website? I can always use my phone (HTC Incredible) to either access those sites or to tether it via rooted WiFi hotspot, but that kind of impacts the usefulness of the tablet.
Ideas? Is there something like Himachi or other VPN tool that I could use? If so, is it really safe to be using Himachi/company owned VPN connections?
