Moving Into The 21st Century (Again!)

So...

A couple of weeks ago I wrote that I had gotten a new Tablet Android computer with an up to date operating system to help break my dependency on my old Windows 8 Desktop computer.

The only problem I found with the tablet is that the virtual on screen keyboard was just too small for my big thumbs and fingers. Often times when I was trying to write a post I would accidentally delete it by hitting the wrong key at the wrong time. Ahhhh!

Then fellow WA member Heidi A. suggested getting a Bluetooth keyboard to pair with my new Tablet. I took that very fine suggestion, and today it arrived in the mail. After spending an hour to charge the internal battery of the new keyboard I was able to pair it successfully with the Tablet. Oh the joy!

The cost of this full sized keyboard was minimal (only around $25) and I see it as a sound investment in my future as an online writer/Entrepreneur. I had enough crashes with my Windows 8 computer to realize I was building on a bad foundation and desperately needed an upgrade. Now I feel I am good to go.

My next move is to buy a Tablet device for my wife Heydi L. She is still planning to take up blogging here at WA once we get her retired from her present line of work. Hopefully by Christmas we will have the extra funds to get her rolling too.

Well that's all for now. Thanks to everyone for their comments and suggestions (especially Heidi A). It is great to have a few more brains to fall back on in a pinch!

Until Later,

Ralph

Good Morning Ralph,

That is the reason I do not have a mobile, it is too small for me to see, I have to put on glasses in a hurry. I prefer my little laptop which I can take with me going on holiday.
That will be nice when your wife joins the crowd, the more we are the merrier.

Greetings from the south of Spain, Taetske

My Samsung tablet is easy to use as I have your finger problem and it has a pin to do the typing.

I also use it as a phone.

The ant's pants for us men.

Sorry I am talking Australian again.

Tom.

Hello Tom.

I find typing with the pen a bit slow, but easier than using my fingers.

I much prefer an actual keyboard.

To me that is the Bee's Knee's.

Is that similar to the Ant's Pant's?

Funny the different expressions we have!

Thanks Tom and Take Care!

Yes, it is the Bee's Knees.

When Australians start talking here we have a lot of expressions that are hard to understand.

Great suggestion. Good to know it works

Great idea and not an arm and leg expense for the keyboard. Here's to getting your wife in, What a great thing for the two of you to share.... that's going to be an awesome thing... Nice Christmas present.
Enjoy

That sounds fantastic, Ralph! I can certainly relate to the 'all thumbs' problem without a real keyboard!
