[Bradford] Talk for next meeting

[David Carpenter]

I'll give a +1 to cheap tablets.

Also have one lying around not doing much. Was bought with the idea of
being a digital music player in a house that is not a mini media centre!

Will bring it along. 

Is it worth having a 'tablet' theme for the evening. Anyone got good
tablets or ipads or anything like that. And anything to say about them?

Cheers
David
