Friends Kingdom: Re: [iPad] Chromebook

I'm enjoying mine.
I do some of the same things on it that I also do on iPad, but I like having
different options. And the screen is bigger! I do have to get used to how
the touch-pad works -- which is different from my laptop as well as (of
course) the touch-screen of iPad.

It's like a very-lite-laptop, and it does start up *fast*!

For lap-(or exercyle, or treadmill)-reading or video-watching,
iPad is more comfortable and fits better, and of course the
iPad can also send-to-AppleTV.

I took it out around the block to try it out on t-mobile -- worked just
fine. I'd had no trouble signing up with t-mobile for my free account, or
registering w/ HP or getting my free Google Drive space (I think it's for a
couple of years, don't really remember; I'm more into Dropbox & pay for
extra there).

It's heavier than I'd want to carry around in my tote if I just wanted to
read/watch what I already had on it, but if I'm going where I might need to
get online w/o wifi it'd be very handy, or even w/ wifi if I were going to
need to do a bunch of typing.

All in all, well worth what I paid for it for what it can do and the fun I
can have with it. It's also a rather nice coral. I was lucky to get it on a
special deal!

Anybody here have a Chromebook?

I got one on Amazon's daily deal -- a refurb HP w/ T-mobile data 200mb/mo
free-for-life.

A nice little addition to my gadget fleet -- and helped scratch a
developing gadget-itch that could have cost me a whole lot more!

I am waiting & wondering what the new Apple announcements will bring in a
few weeks, though.
