I started the MerckManual demo install and followed it through until it told me to hotsync. I did not hotsync.
Hey Push and Bun!

Well, I know that I have the 5 minute clinical consult on my tablet as an offline, html file as well as a compiled html help file, though I can't get the second one to work with FB reader. I think the first one (which works perfect) weighs in at about 100 megs I believe.

I thought for sure I also had the Merck manual as an offline web folder as well but I can't seem to find it anywhere here at home. Maybe I need to look around some more.

Anyway, I'm over on the pediatric intensive care unit unit at Mott hospital (U of M) and we have something like 35 laptops available everywhere with Lexi-comp at hand. I've seen the price for Lexi-comp complete as much as $970.00 for a single user. Yikes!

So yeah, since having that resource free of use I've basically lost all interest as of late on getting any type of medical junk on my tablet.

I really should look into this some more because having that kind of information mobile is something I've always wanted to have.

I've browsed online and it seems like to me that I really need a Windows Mobile device, but if I can get that same type of crud on my tablet I'd rather stick to what I already have.

Anyway, what's your thoughts on this Bunanson? Should I start looking at getting another handheld device or am I just not using the tablet well enough?

Cheers!
