I am ready to buy a tablet and I was completely set on the archos 101 or 7 internet tablet(which ever was available first, but mainly the 101)
I am a college student who wants to use it for:
1-Internet(online classes)
2-ebooks and ecomics
3-MS office stuff(word processing, data sheets, presenting)
4-Toy(games, and stuff)
Then when I asked around which would be best for me and they all said to check the iPad out, because with a blue tooth keyboard I would be set on all 4 of those.
Everything I see on the internet is all about specs and screen smoothness and build quality, but that doesn't matter as much, I want to know about the real stuff.
I couldn't find any information besides that the archos 101 is an over sized android phone and thats it, so it can do pretty much what my phone can. It just seems like all reviews and info were trying to compare it the iPad on a hardware base, so I need to know if the Droids application/os is up to par, not its build or anything.
Main Questions:
Is there an app. for me to take my .cbr files and read them in a comic book viewer?
Is there an app. for me to take my eBooks(pdf mainly) and read them in an ebook viewer(like iBooks) which contains a dictionary to instantly check words definition?
Is there an app. to do MS Office things like the iPads Pages/Keynote/Numbers?
Lesser questions:
Does the screen change if flipped over to show someone a picture?
Can it do GPS and navigation?
CAN THE DROID DO EVERYTHING THE IPAD CAN? or Can it do everything the iPad can but Better and then some?
Thanks for any comments, make me a believer!
