    Dell tablet for tuning

    Well after much looking around at a tablet for diagnostic stuff and tuning I purchased a Dell Venue Pro 11Windows 8.1 with the intel processor and wireless card and bluetooth. It has one full size usb port that I used my tunercat cable with and I bought a Bluetooth mouse that makes it easy on any surface to move the cursor around. Attached is a picture of a benchtop flash on a 0411 also I have scan xl and dash command with a Bluetooth OBD link MX that has worked out well. I had a mifi unit that I carried around with my att service that im transferring to the tablet now I can browse download files or upload all in one deal.

    What does one of those tablets cost? Is Tunerpro RT5 compatible with it to data log OBD1?

    Where's the keyboard?

    I've still yet to try my touchscreen with tuning software on my Panisonic.

    You know I would try one of them except for the Windows 8 part... have they ever fixed it with a desktop yet? When 8 came out I played with one at the store for about an hour and hatted it!

    What are the odds? I'm planning on buying the 8" version very soon for a carputer build. Is it nippy like the reviews say?

    It actually has the option for a bluetooth keyboard the keys are actually pretty large i paid $800 for it. Im getting used to the 8.1 its not bad actually


    I have a Dell 8" also and it does not have a full size usb so i never even tried it.
