Joe's Wish List: A better Acer tablet

I lied about the Acer Iconia in the last post. OMG, this is the tablet I want for the family. We could do so much with this. Pair this with the little 19" LCD TV we got for free from the neighbor (I will miss that lady when she moves next month), and you have a great little mobile media center for the house. How to pair it? An HDMI cable playing 1080p video to the TV. I could use it on the 42" LG TV we have I guess, but I'm already running my laptop through that for... um, "saved" movies... in full HD.

Joe's Wish List: Graphics Tablet

Other than a replacement for the beat-up clunker of an Escort I'm driving now, I think this will be my one buy for myself this year with taxes. I had some other ideas, such as an Acer Iconia tablet or a new sound system in the new vehicle, but I have gone long enough, about 4 years, without my graphics tablet.

This one looks pretty capable. Adesso is the one who bought the company who made my last graphics tablet. They sell a 12x9 pad that is the exact same one I had before, but I didn't like it being so big. This being a widescreen version is perfect, and it's mid-priced so I am hoping it will not be so cheap as the last one.

But, of course, it's on a wish list, not on a grocery list, so let's hope we can work it out so you guys can get some decent digital art on this blog, and my Tumblr feed.
