Woop! Woop!
A shiny new Nexus 10 arrived on my desk the other day. It certainly is a thing of loveliness.
I knew that getting a tablet was a Good Idea, which would let me dispatch bits of work and derby stuff whilst on the go. I have a large phone, HTC One X, but having a tablet is awesome for making things easy.
The GUI is really close to the HTC's (as you would expect), but just different enough to be slightly odd
The WiFi card is really kick ass.
The screen is jaw dropping. However, as with my HTC, you only have to think about putting your finger on it to create a fingerprint. Whatever Apple do to their Gorilla Glass makes it resist fingerprints far more impressively than the Nexus.
As I am fully Googled-up from my phone, the tablet synched lots of the important stuff and some apps that are tablet compatible. I have also discovered Google Keep - a note taking app that is really nice, synchs to your Google account and, crucially, unlike Google Drive - it will save a note to the device memory until such a time as you get a data connection, so you can still take notes offline and know as soon as you hit connectivity they will back up.
It handles my work email really nicely - MS Exchange, used as IMAP.
If you have a Nexus 10, I can also recommend:
Moko Ultra-Slim SmartShell It doesn't add much bulk at all, has got appropriate cut outs for ports and camera, works as a stand and has a magnetic catch for sleep/wake of the tablet.
I am paranoid about letting the tablet float around my rucksack without a pouch to keep rucksack lint etc out of the ports.
inno-in neoprene pouch Ignoring the
SCIENCE FAIL where they show that apparently distributing pressure over a smaller surface area reduces the stress on the tablet, the pouch is very good. Takes the tablet, in the smartshell, with ease, but without being oversized.
