Ordering a keyboard for a tablet speaks volumes to how you use a pc. That is not a joke. I would do the same thing. I was looking at a notebook other day and its tiny keyboard. I said to the shop owner "I would end up plugging in keyboard in that thing" But I am tempted to buy a notebook as i am going to college in September to retake English.
I really hate this whole touch screen revolution. I read that M$ are going to code in windows8 that you can't remove the metro crap. I can't see myself ever using a virtual keyboard, touching the screen at my pc desk at home.
But I find myself wanting one of those tablets. How are you liking yours?

Rob, couldn't agree more. Touchscreen just does not appeal to me at all. But I do like my little notebook/netbook/laptop whatever you like to call it. Have been watching bits of the Olympics on it and it's great -as is the BBC website, can more or less watch anything when you want.
So Rob why do you want a tablet...??

I was perplexed though when putting an Sd card in it and it kept telling me to 'mount' my Sd card........I had to check out Youtube to find out what this meant.
The instructions that came with the tablet are just useless. It was a steepish learning curve for me...but hey...if you are learning you know you aren't dead  .

Last night reading around the net about MID tablets some reviews said some of them wouldn't pick up wifi from a few inches away! Cheap Chinese rubbish - nearly said junk there but it's not a boat!
