correct, no conflicts. i added a 1 minute interval for android status updating. so there would be a slight delay (but you would have that anyways if you are using multiple devices).

Hoping to see a good deal on a tablet this memorial day weekend. Trying to stay in the $60 range, yet with ICS, 1gb and dual core.
The new Hisense Walmart tablets are interesting. High specs at a $99 and $149 price point. I may just spend a few bucks more for a higher quality 4.2 tablet.

I just read about those this morning. I'm gonna go check them out, if they're really in the stores.

Walmart had them in stock. I had to ask for them as they didn't have them on display. I picked up the Pro version ($149). I like it so far, it's much faster and nicer than the $60 I have on the tank. Feels very solid. Nice, rubberized textured back. I didn't get a chance to see the $99 one.

The pro is the better buy for $50 more. Higher res, gps, nfc, bluetooth, faster. It's basically a nexus 7 with HDMI out and an SD card.
Would love to see a coupon on tablets for the weekend. I also have a $100 gift card coming to me from my CC company, and this would be perfect to spend it on. I would try to make it a full removable console for the TV and room instead of just for the Reef Angel.

Yes, because anything more than bare minimum is a waste of money if you're only using the RA app on it. I have a cheap tablet for that, and this is my toy and my bathroom "reading material".

Jumped on the Tablet screen bandwagon today... got myself a 9" Nook HD+ for $149.
Cyanogenmod 10.1, 1920x1080p screen, 9". The screen res made it too good to pass up.
I'm installing one of those Koala tablet wall mounts so I can take it out and replace with ease whenever I want to use it elsewhere.

Now you can read books while you monitor your tank too
