new toys! new toys!

My latest package from Amazon arrived today, and it was full of fun thiings to play with. So come with me to my bedroom with me so I can pen up my toy box so I cqan show you all my neato new toyd.

The coolest is definitely the new case for my tablet. It uses a Velcro tab that sits under the tablet when it’s in there i order to keep everything safely and securely immobilized, which is rad. It is custom made for ths exact tablet, so the holder has gaps for all the buttons and jacks.

Speaking of which, I learned today that this thing does have a headphone jack, w00t! I looked it over when I first got it and didn’t SEE anything that looked like a headphone jack to Me, but apparently they have changed a little since the days when I had a Walkman practically glued to my hip.

So yes. I had to Google my tablet to find out it had a headphone jack. Derp.

But I digress. The coolest thing about this case is that it comes with its own Bluetooth keyboard plus the pocket to keep it in.

I say pocket, but the thing actually has magnetic backing, so it actually just magnetically adheres in place, which is beyond cool.

Now being around the same size as my 7 inch tablet, we still have a big fingers versus small buttons thing going on. Don’t get me wrong, it is a lot bigger than the virtual keyboardI was using before. After all, it is the size of the entire tablet, not just two thirds of the screen.

But my fingers haven’t ten any smaller, Typing is still a tad tricky if not
Downright painstaking st times.

Still, it is wonderful to be typing on something a lot like a normal, standard keyboard and not some squished and unnatural virtual hoozitz.

It even has arrow keys. Joy!

In addition to the case, I got some thingd that don’t work. No their fsult though. It’s my faukt for being a doofus

Like the four port hub I bought It would be up and working right now, no doubt, if I had not forgotten to buy the cable to connect it to my computer Doh1

And speaking of csbles, the one thst was supposed to let me plug this tablet into normal USB ports turned out to be a six foot USB to microUSB cable instead.

Samsung devices use a proprietary plug, not anything normsl like usb. So the cable is useless. I would return it, but it only cost $3, so fuck it.

Lastly, I got a USB stick that takes SD and microSD cards, just like my tablet does, so i can finally take my whole MP3 collection on an itty bitty card that will be with me everywhere in this tablet of mine.

It doesn’t work, but only because it is in clamshell packaging and I have been too lazy to go find some sturdy scissrs.

Well, Mom is calling so I guess it’s time to put all my toys back in the toybox and call it a day.

Thanks fir coming over!
