No, I drag it out every week or so, but its a secondary device for me.

Yeah me and my tablet have been pretty inseparable

it's saved my butt a couple of times, letting me pull handouts and worksheets in the few minutes before class starts. it's also been great for listening to music in the car and watching tv shows when i've got a few minutes at work.

probably the most innapropriate use has been my constant use of my NIT in class :P

I take it everywhere as it is good for "field work" when I don't want to haul the 7 lb work laptop around. Plus, there are so many adjunct uses that it is almost silly to not carry IT!

You should set aside one night a week not to bring it to bed with you.

Hey, don't give him bad advice -- the IT is a lot less intrusive than a laptop for situations like this.

Since nobody answered the question about the smartphone:

I used a N80 and now a e51. Both are smartphones and the N80 has actually better specs for internet usage than the N95 (higher screen resolution, for example). I can't find from the specs how the N95 does more than the e51. And I tested the N95 camera and, even with pixel count, it is not as good as the camera from the N80.

The phone is very convenient as a phone, as a modem for the N810, as a snapshot, low-quality camera, as a calendar (it synchronises with my mac), and even as an Internet radio.

Browsing the web, writing e-mail are much, MUCH better on the N810. So I take it anywhere too.


(You can browse the web or use e-mail on the e51, BTW. The browser is actually good for such a small screen. It is just that the screen is simply too small.)

for me the n800 is a small ultra portable laptop. as an example :I take it with me if I have to go the the medical center with the kids. The n800 will be the portable entertainment center, playing some Dora-the-explorer or winnie the pooh video when the kids are not using sketch to draw primitive faces or something else. Then if I'm stuck at the hospital with them, I can "steal" some wifi from a neighbour while I stand next to a window and the kid is sleeping. I take it in camping as most places offer free wifi service... for the rainy days.

It is usually with me, lately however if I have jobs in a particularly bad neighborhood, I will leave it at home.
