- Home: Kindle 4 (reading) -- iPod touch 4 (audiobooks, music)
- Traveling: Clip Zip (audiobooks, music) -- Galaxy Player 4 (GPS, internet)
The only thing missing is a 7" quad-core tablet w/ card slot. Primary use is for videos while on vacation (no wifi); after that, it's a toy. |
Those are the three areas of most people's usage, I expect. I suggest, however, that you might rename the categories to Pocket, Home, and Travel.
My own lineup is:
- Pocket: iPhone (front pocket) Sony T1 (back pocket)
- Home: iPad (surfing, music), iphone (podcasts, audiobooks, dogwalking), Sony 950 (bedside)/KDX (easy chair)
- Travel: iPad (movies, surfing, email), K3, iPhone
When I look at this lineup, I don't see a good spot for a 7" tablet. For me, it would be too big for a pocket device and utterly redundant for a home device. It's possible that it could replace the iPad/K3 combination when I'm traveling, since I prefer to travel light.
