Considering getting a new device

NeonSamurai · 03-21-11, 02:15 PM

Ok here is the deal, I am considering getting a new device for graduate school and I would like it to be capable of doing a couple of things.

Cellphone: Not absolutely essential, but would be nice not to have to need a cell phone too
Note Taking: for taking notes in class
MP3 player
Camera
Interconnect-able with my PC laptop

Ideally it should be small light and portable (smart phone to 10" screen), have at least 8 hour battery life, touch screen, bluetooth, wireless networking, separate portable keyboard accessory available, & reasonably sized screen for note taking. I would be using this in the US, but it cannot be SIM locked (I would probably get it in Canada to avoid that problem).

Anyhow I'm looking for any suggestions

From my own research it is looking like the Iphone 4 + ipad keyboard dock would be my best option. I wish it had a larger screen though. I had considered the Samsung Galaxy Tab, but unfortunately it seems the North American version doesn't seem to have cellphone functionality.
