Hi Rose and all,

I have yet to buy any type of tablet or ipad.  Finally just got a laptop a 
few year's ago.  Can someone tell me the main diff between a tablet and 
ipad?  Is it just size?  I would also like to know about getting an ipod 
that is easy on the eyes as some of those (displays) are all so small for 
me.


Thanks
Christy

Rose, I have been thinking about you and wondering if you were o.k.!  Sure
glad to see you back and hope your health is perfect.
I am going to keep your post about the router and the Tablet as I have a
suspicion I may be getting an I-Pad (or something similar) for Christmas.
And I just purchased a router a few months ago when I changed ISP's.  I have
lots to learn about how that works.  Got a new Epson Printer 4 in 1 that is
wireless compatible but I have not set it up yet.  Still connected with a
USB Port.
Stay tuned-----as I am sure I will have lots of questions after the first of
the year.
Sandi
