Good Day to Members,
I am andavane or John and I'm delighted to come across this forum because I have some complex needs.
I'm a wheelchair user who uses a number of devices and PCs of various screen sizes due to the many seating positions I need to use during the day.
When sitting upright I have an IBM (Lenovo) Thinkpad 12.6" and a smaller 11.6" model for testing programs on.
Both are Windows-7 and Ubuntu 12.04 dual-booted. I vastly prefer Ubuntu due to its stability and keep Windows for when I really have to.
I also have a Sony Xperia Pro Mobile in Android.
My issue is that when I need to rest I have to put the laptops away, but I want to continue the work I am doing, in Word Processing and also Mind Mapping.
The mobile is too small and limited for this so I'm looking for a tablet to help fill the gap. A 10" screen is likely a bit large but I don't want as small as the Xperia Pro. I am very used to a keyboard, not a touch screen, and I need to devise a method of putting the tablet on a stand. I see some Tablets have a stand of sorts and can fold up like a magazine, and a few have keyboards. The Sony looks a great possibiity, and I believe there are a few suitable Tablets on the way.
I'd be thrilled if there were a suitable tablet, possibly 78" in size which would fill the gap between 12" and 4" a nd which can be used lying down lor propped.
Much looking forward to memnbers' knowledge, advice and suggestions!
Regards, andavane
