Thanks everyone, I decided to go for the i-pad 4 64G as it ticked all the boxes. Alll I need do now is work out how to use it, but I'm sure it will get easier as I progress. Will not be back to this site now, so good luck to all and have a great year. Alex

Bill, thanks again for your help. I will still check them both out and then make up my mind. I've been a bit lazy in not looking into these things before, but it looks a good way to get some more equipment that I can play with and have fun. Alex

Thanks again Rezkeh, all noted and it helps me understand more all the time. Leaning a little more towards i-pad at present as I do like the easy life. We'll see what transpires after tomorrows store visit. Alex

Sorry to hear of your problems and although I can't help as I don't have the knowledge, I hope it sorts out OK. I have been looking at these tablets but concerned about problems that keep cropping up and as you have problems with a C9 issue, it seems that it may be a bit dodgy to look at the...

Rezkeh, thanks for the reply. I guess it's sound advice and I need to look closely at both systems. I have been searching the net for guidance and come up with more questionable doubts about both i-pad and android. On the i-pad, the problems seem to be restrictions made by apple and although I...

Thanks Bill, I am still looking, although after a long conversation with my sister, who used to sell Apple Mac some years ago and became somewhat of an expert in her field, sh thinks I should be looking at the Apple i-pad4, so I will check it out by going into and Apple Store soon. Still...

Looked through another thread on this sub-site, which gives several outlets at various prices. Some just for the tablet and some for the tablet and keyboard combined. As I will be getting the complete set, a dual one will be best for me and the selection looks good. Alex

Many thanks my friend, I did pop into a store today and they have put one on order for me to consider when they get it. They also said they would help with initial setting up, which is a great help to someone like me and it is the sort of thing they do with TV's and i-pads. Tey also confirmed a...

Thanks for the info, I thought that may be the case but as long as there will be no problems once it has been updated. Pity they don't do it on the build and check that it's working OK. Alex

So, does anyone know if I order a new TF700 in the UK from a retail supplier like John Lewis, will it be delivered with Jelly Bean or ICS, which has then to be upgraded? Also, what is the best sleve/case around for this model please? Alex

Citizen Coyote, thanks for the reply. I have looked at it and appreciate it has a great screen, but prefer to have additional size with the USB and SSD. Next step will be to try and get to see one working. If there are any owners in the Midlands area of the UK, I would appreciate a chat! Alex

frenziedfemale, thanks for your reply and I get the point that those with problems are more likely to post and most posts are from last year when the first batches were put out by Asus. Your requirements are very similar to mine although I am unlikely to have any games but will use it for...

Thanks for the reply. I haven't been looking at the Nexus 7 for problems, only the Transformer TF700, but perhaps the problems were from the initial batch, which may be understandable. Alex

Hi tabletnovice, I too am heavily into photography and have a Canon 7D and several 'L' lenses. I mainly cover studio portraits and although I have an HTC Desire smartphone, which gives good images on display, but no mobile phone will do as well as a DSLR in the right hands. I am now looking...
