I am in the market for my first tablet. I have a smartphone issued to me by work, but only use it for e-mails and GPS navigation. I am very confused with all the tablet options and need help. Basically, I am looking for a productivity enhancer at work, as it is not feasible to lug around and boot up a big laptop all of the time. Secondary use would be for web browsing, photo editing, e-reader, and watching the occasional movie while on vacation. I don't play any games, don't have a netflix account, and aside from having i-tunes and a nook account, I don't use a whole lot of online consumption services.
Here are my requirements
Must Have's
1. Can sync (read and push) to my work exchange calendar and e-mail account.
2. Allows me to read word docs and PDFs
3. Allows me to take notes during meetings, quickly save to pdf (or other format), then send
4. portable. Have to be able to carry it in a briefcase.
5. Allows me to download photos directly from my DSLR or regular sd card (ok with having to purchase adaptor)
6. camera to skype
7. Price: prefer not to pay over $500, but will if necessary
8. Durable
Also would be nices
1. GPS
2. External storage (I cannot use cloud-based services for work due to security reasons)
