The best mini-tablet/MID/slate/whatever


Humodour

Recommended Posts

I want a device that has as large a screen as possible while still fitting in my pocket. I want it to run on Linux, preferably Android. I want it to be at least 600 mhz (preferably a gigahert). I want it to play MP3's. I want it to have Flash support. I want it to have WiFi. Ideally it'd also have 3G mobile broadband. I want it to have mobile page support, but also (and perhaps default) full-size page support. A USB port would be nice. Preferably flash memory since I'd be carrying it a lot, possibly drop it - hard drives seem less rugged.

 

Ideas?

Wait. For right now there is nothing. The closest thing is the Archos 5, which isn't that good and is more of a PMP than an MID. The Dell Mini 5 should be coming soon, and that should fit nicely. Also, Google is rumored to be working on one, which should be good.

In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum.

What you're asking for just plain doesn't exist, I picked the closest thing that I knew of, if that's not an option, so be it.

 

Dell Mini 5 is, from what I can see, EXACTLY what I asked for. It's just not out for another few months. But I don't meant to be harsh. I appreciate your input, it just didn't suit me.

 

I decided to buy a cheapo small $100 8gb flash player today with mini-USB for universal compatibility. It'll tide me over till the Dell Mini 5.

Good lad. Smart choice, IMO.
