I'm in the market for a new tablet and I've narrowed it down to a couple, the G Pad being one of them. Well, today, my $120 touchscreen remote decided to jump under my foot as I was taking a step, and apparently those things aren't designed to have 220 pounds dropped on them. So now I'm out a remote. I'm hoping the G Pad can take its place as a remote. I know the Q Remote function is limited on the G Pad but maybe other apps can fill in for what I need. I want to be able to control my TV, Blu Ray player, Uverse box and audio receiver. On my broken remote I could press a button(such as "watch tv") and it would turn on/off whatever needed to be on/off to do whatever function i wanted.
If I can do this with the G Pad, even if I have to buy a more functional app, then this tablet would jump to the front of the list. Anyone have any experience with using it as a remote?
