Mechanic with a tablet is fine with me. You are correct in that you are probably pretty unique in using a tablet for your motorcycle specs. You submitted your best use. I've got a dozen instructional pdfs & manuals on my tablet too - so that by itself is not unique. When I'm working on anything that is motorized; I can't keep my hands clean enough to use the tablet. I need a printout. In the construction realm of things: it is not rugged enough. I've got for instance manuals to build greenhouses. It is good as an extra reference, if you only need to look up one or two things along the way. Any more than that and you're better with paper. It can't be used directly in the line of construction & mechanics as far as I'm concerned. It is too delicate, will get damaged, etc.

Your entry fit the bill for the giveaway. Some people just happen to think there were better entries to get spot number #5 and I think the 4-way race shows that. That's the way it is.

No hard feelings.

Would love to catch up an talk about bikes & tablets. Check out your bike. Swap stories. If we were living in the same vicinity.
