Android?

Ok... so maybe I'll start writing about my super geeky technological machinations.  At least Lou and Armin will appreciate it :-)

So... first attempt, start small...

I think my conversion from iOS guy to Android guy has progressed another step.  I'm writing this from a nexus 7 I just picked up at staples of all places.  I've got 14 days to return it if I don't like it, so it's time to play comparo with my old iPad 2.

So far so good.  Even though it's a much smaller screen, at 7 inches...it's actually got higher resolution.  That was actually my only major complaint with the old iPad... reading on it wasn't great.  Tolerable, but not great.  This is actually better... even for pdfs of magazines.  Tried out Premier Guitar so far and its good.  Need to try a few more.

App wise it's been good too so far... I think almost everything I was using on the pad I've found on the nexus.  No complaints yet.

It'll be nice to have the tablet match up with my phone ecosystem...I have a galaxy s3.

More to come, perhaps.

blogging

I keep having ideas for things I could blog about... maybe i'll start one of these days. I do have this blog. For example, my ridiculous technological adventures... like dealings with my turntable, cartridges, styli, cantilevers, etc. we'll see.
