I was wondering if anyone can tell me if there was a app that would enable you to use the NT as drawing pad (ie a bamboo tablet for example)? I ask because i tend to do work with Photoshop and would find convenient to be able to use the nook tablet to work as a drawing tablet so i can use it to make fine edits.
For that reason, simply controlling the desktop doesn't work quite that well as it has a lag so it makes getting detail drawings difficult.
I am just curious if it is even possible to do it, as i feel like their are others who would enjoy this functionality too, so if their isn't a app to do it, maybe it would be worth while for someone to make it and sell it.
I have the bamboo tablet. Probaably not worth trying to kludge the nootlet to do the job of a dedicated drawing tablet ... same reason you wouldn't try to use the nootlet as a replacement for a mouse.

I wanted to hear from the users what their experience has been with Lapdocks and/or webtop. Id like to know what and how you are using your lapdock. and to those that are using webtop over hdmi or the docking station, what things have improved your productivity at work and home.
Im trying to weight the pros and cons. of course the cons are always that little thing called $$$. not sure how i would utilize these products and want to know how the current users are.
is it just the "i can do this with my phone" or have they made youre life better?
and to give you an idea, my workstation consists of a HP EliteBook thats never open and directly connected to my 32inch LCD. so im also thinking about the idea of doing a KVM switch and have the ability to toggle between the two at the office. This would leave my desk clean and simple. BUT, that doesnt do anything for me at home and travels (but then again i have a laptop, so i dont see where the need would be) and a HDMI KVM switch is not a cheap solution either.
Thoughts?

Im using the docking station and it has been great for me I find myself hardly using my laptop anymore which is also hooked up to my flat screen
as far as the web browsing goes its not as fast as the laptop but I have the wireless keyboard also and it makes a huge comfort difference, there is about a 1 to 2 second delay for me when I click a link for the page to load completely,, honestly I say give it a try and if you dont like it just return it,,, but I think you would really like the wireless keyboard it literally replaced my laptop I can do all my work from my phone now, its great,,
Using the HD dock with a portable wireless keyboard/mouse. Even though I wish it would do more it does make the phone more functional. Think it all depends on what type of apps you need to use. It makes it very nice when traveling to take the place of a laptop but in the office there are just too many Windows apps I need that won't run on my phone.
If I traveled more I know it would be a very nice feature to have.
I use my Lapdock daily for just about everything. I have found most useful replacements and with Logme In I can control all my PC's or Servers.
I also use the HD Dock which is connected to a 32 inch TV.
I like the device and all it offers.

One quick thing, xTMFxOffshore, I wanted to let you know that we all appreciate your contribution to the forums, and I wanted to personally thank you.
I haven't really done much Man. I'm not a Dev. So I just try to help where I can. But no problem.

So I am thinking of the Asus Transformer Prime tablet, to replace my laptop, but I have a few questions.
I mainly want something light, with great battery life, that I can quickly edit code on the go, whether it be Java, C++, HTML, etc. I don't want to limit myself. Tablets like the Transformer are nice because they're lightweight, large screen devices with touch interfaces, and if I want to type like on a keyboard, I can just plug it into the keyboard dock and type away. Very convenient!
Does anybody know of any Source code editors for Android with syntax highlighting? Or just really good editors in general (without syntax highlighting but would be excellent for coding on the go)? Also, if I use github, I read that you can edit online with Ace, does this work on Android tablets?
Thanks for all the help!
try touchqode, it's free and you can pay for the Pro version if you like it
another alternative would be to just use vim or emacs from the terminal..
i am agree with the above user as i have tried this in my tablet and "touchqode" works perfectly, and thus would like to recommend you the same !
I am hoping some of you fellow tablet owners out there could help me out. ^-^
I'm looking to buy a keyboard and mouse for my Ice Cream Sammiched tablet, but I just want to be sure I don't waste my money. I plan on using them for my PC as well so I won't be buying Android specific accessories.
I have a couple items in mind already, but I'm open to anything that you guys personally recommend as long as it works.
Could anyone confirm if the Apple Magic Mouse and Bluetooth wireless keyboard work?
I could probably pull off building a kernel if the repo is open just to try some drivers that I've seen around...but honestly I haven't looked at any of that stuff for the Tab 10.1.
If the Magic Mouse is a no go then I was looking at this Logitech mouse.
And if anyone has any alternative suggestions to the Apple keyboard that work with ICS I'm also open to those.
If it's not too much to ask I'm also interested in knowing what doesn't work on mice and keyboards.
Thanks!
I own a 5 inch chinese android phone. 1080p screen etc. Its a pretty mediocre phone so isn't in use. Basically i wanted to either find a case like this: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free...-with-Stand-Cover-Case-for-7-9/958953702.html ..something that will allow me to turn it into a mini laptop/umpc...OR... does anyone have suggestions on making a housing? I will be disasembling it if i cant find a case and costom building....
My idea was to use a nintendo ds housing and a mini bluetooth keyboard..

Please dont ask why I would want to do this, its basically just because i can! I am currently porting linux to the device so should be a worthy little UMPC
You know, make something like the Pandora console without the gaming functionality...
Cheers
If anyone is interested in this, I can create a mini tut how. You will need root on the other android device but not on Yogabook. I am guessing that I am the only one who uses it this way.
I use my Yogabook to draw on my Note 2014 10.1 for example. Sounds like a stupid idea, but it is not. For instance I can keep the screen at any distance I want, I also can use the pressure sensitive pen on the screen of Samsung Note without disconnecting my Yogabook So I can switch back and forth at no cost.
This seems to work with any android tablet well as long as they have proper input. I tested it with my Nook Hd and it works. So if you have a 12 inch android tablet then you will get much nicer screen space and much better pressure sensitivity. The Yogabook pen has much deeper pressure sensing compared to the wacom stuff ships with Samsung line as far a I can tell.
I haven't got one yet but plan to (there are other more urgent pending expenses), but I would love to have this for when I do get it. I'm guessing that not only will it work for other tablets but any other Android devices (like tv boxes).
But anyways, I hope you share (and that the method survives the nougat upgrade if/when it comes).
Apologies for the thread resurrection. Did you make progress with this? And if so, how well does it work?
Can I, for example, use Sketchbook or Squid on one Android device, and just use my Yoga Book as an input device for it, much as one would use an Intuos tablet on a PC? Can it operate with the Yoga Book's screen turned off?
