Tablets computer ones

I have a Tesco hudl which I'm really pleased with. Very simple to use.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet and have threatened to take a hammer to it quite often.

However, that could be either our internet connection or the GN site which takes ages to load each thread and ages to try and post anything.
(although GN seems fine on the PC)

I'm pretty sure the Apple staff won't push you to buy what you don't need Mary. I would give them a go. Good luck.

Son has gone home now jollyg. Sorry if I have trodden on your toes. Not sure how though.

Mary you could also consider a Chromebook as yet another option if you'd rather stay with a laptop than a tablet

Wow what's that about

Remember the truism jingl. Empty kettles make the most sound.

Will your posts be so full of your wisdom when your son goes way.

Sorry for my rethorical question.

On your own admission you know nothing.

Hope you get out of bed on the right side tomorrow.

Good dreams

Jinglebellsfrocks and wobblybits I have the top office and publisher I had to get them for my granddaughter I don't know the first thing about them. But I would like to be able to print from the iPad if I buy it.My printer a HP 8610 pro jinglybellsfrocks you make it sound like the Apple store staff are approachable and not pushing you to buy and I don't want the latest one what's the point if last years is just as good I am impressed with how popular Apple is and it seems none of you have had any issues with them.

I Use both an iPad, Windows laptop and Windows desktop. These all connect with my Canon A3 wireless photo printer. The iPad whilst it will print, does not allow the control over the printer that the Windows laptop does and in turn the directly connected Windows desktop gives the the most control and is what I use for critical photo printing.
The iPad is useful when we travel and OH uses it for email, browsing etc, but it would not replace my Windows laptop for most of my requirements.

You can link a printer. Depends on what printer you' have.

I have to confess I am getting this info from son who has been staying for a few days. I know nothing myself., except that my iPad mini is excellent. I can take it on hol in my handbag. It has a really good camera.

I think you should brave an Apple Store. They will see you right. But tell them you don't need the latest one, unless you want it.

If you've got Office 365, that would work on iPad. If not, you can buy Office for it.

Because of not being able to use the desktop for any period of time I have to do almost everything from the kindle so I would really need to link the printer and whatever else I need to link I am so grateful to all of you for your help I should have started with computers long ago all of you are so knowledgeable about it I am still scared I am going to break it if I press the wrong button.

That is interesting path but I don't write so many letters now- mainly emails or hand write things. Only official letters get the printed sort! The only thing I find is that because I have never bothered to link it to the printer - although it would link as it is an air-printer - I need to either book tickets or hotels on the iMac or print out the confirmation letter by accessing my mail on the Mac. Not much of an inconvenience really. This is why I am considering another laptop as I loved my other one and was so sad when it died. Will be investigation them in a couple of weeks.

The service is a really important part of it miep what kindle have you got I have to say I love mine when it works I only have a few more days to send it back. I have Microsoft office on my Dell would that work with iPad It looks like the iPad is the favourite so far .

The probable reason for price differences is the memory size. There are so many iPads now. I have just bought an iPad mini (I used to have an iPad2) and am really pleased with it, it is so light.

Welshwife...I bought Microsoft Office with Word for my IMac and I can also use it on my Ipad.

I have an iPad and we have an IMac as the computer - it is very handy as they both update to the same iCloud account so things can be accessed from either machine. Apple prices are similar wherever you get them - no special deals. If you go to an Apple shop you can get extras though - free - and also have one to one lessons at any time. The only thing I find I cannot do on the IPad is word processing.
I intend to look at the Apple laptops and hope they are not too expensive compared to the others!

Try Morgan Computers, they have cheap tablets
I have a Kindle Fire and love it (not from Morgan)

I will buy a Samsung when my Acer needs replacing (nothing wrong with it now). I wouldn't spend the extra money on an iPad. I was given one a few years ago when my brother was upgrading his, but I found I preferred using Android devices because of the flexibility.

(I dropped it on concrete)

You get good service from Apple too. When I dropped my iPad mini they replaced it with a new one much more cheaply than buying from scratch again.

Out of date doesn't matter. Apple want people to buy another one I guess. That's why they put out new ones. I wouldn't go with the Samsung.

I would still buy the older one. They are reliable anyway.

Apple prices are all the same no matter where you buy them in UK.

They have us all by the short and curlies,and BTW I have always used apple, but am not so stupid as to upgrade all the time.
