Yeah, I'm just lamenting the fact that I have to get rid of a still functional tablet due to the WiFi issue. But hey, that's progress. The hardware outlives the software, firmware, apps, infrastructure, etc. At least I'll get a bump on the OS, jumping from Lollipop 5 to Nougat 7.

I got a super deal by trading in an old Dot 2 for the new Show 5 during Prime Day. The few dollars you get on the trade-in itself isn't all that great, but the 25% off the full price of a new device is killer.

Now that you mention it, maybe I should re-think the HD 8. The HD 10 is still too large for my use.
