I took my brand spanking new $65, 7" Android bastid tablet for a drink tonite, at my fave watering hole, Grumpy's Nordeast.
You know, time to celebrate our union. :-)))
Walzed in with the toy in the pocket of my cargo pants. Saddled up to the bar. Next to me, a dude with a new iPad. So I said to the bartender, "Hey, Tony, look at this, sixty five bucks." While pulling the toy out of the pocket.
They have WiFi. I pulled up their site (OK, I cheated, had it bookmarked ahead or time, planning this moment).
Then I told him about the 32GB card holding my movies, and cranked up Blade Runner. Why not? ;-)
In no time at all, people wanted one for their dad in the hospital, their kid, you name it.
Oh, and I helped the dude with the new iPad figure out how to get movies on his thang.
All in all, it was a lovely evening of lifting a few pints of Surly Furious.
Then I slipped that little Android into my pocket and staggered home to tell you all about it. ;-)
Bottom line: this Cruz toy is now a welcome member of my family of miscreants. Sits happily next to the Dell Mini 9 hackintosh, on top of the Mac Pro wannabe hackintosh tower. One small, happy family, with my MacBook Pro keeping an eagle eye on these whacky ruffians. ;-) |
