What do you access the web with the majority of time? I find myself using my phablet more and more. I use Feedly for RSS feeds of a couple dozen sites and individual apps for about two dozen more.

The only drawback is I don't really care to post as much when I'm using the phone. Swiftkey is great but it's no match for a mechanical keyboard.

Option 3 as long as the wi fi is good.

When I first got the iPad, I was on it quite a bit. But I've found that I can do literally nothing productive on anything less than a PC. Not that I didn't try. So the iPad was good for a TV companion and for wasting time. It's convenient for me for certain things, but I was spending way too much time downloading apps just for the sake of it all.

One day, I put my iPad on the shelf and bought a Kindle Fire HD. Smaller, which for me is better, but no 3g/4g. But I have a hotspot, so it was all kind of a wash. That was quite a while ago and I haven't picked up my iPad (or missed it) since. I use the Kindle for reading and quick internet things.

I guess I could look at the iPad mini, but why spend the money?

But when it comes down to it, I need a laptop or desktop to be anywhere near productive.

Yeah, that's why I limited my question to web browsing. Obviously, we are still a ways off before we can abandon the Desktop experience everywhere else.

For me, in the evening and weekends, I just find it more convenient to check sports , tech sites, here and other places on my Note. I can do it from my bed, couch or yard. My wifi is good enough to actually use that from up the sidewalk across the street. For posting and things like that though, while I will do it with my phone, it definitely isn't the same experience as using a regular keyboard. I'm to the point now that I will say fuck it and just not comment at forums if It requires a long response and I don't want to fire up the desktop or laptop.

I'm vision impared, requiring some pretty powerful reading glasses. At home I am normally on my laptop or PC. At work I prefer to use the business PC, but I do check my personal emails and look at Facebook on my iPhone. I also listen to and watch YouTube videos from my phone, when at work. Most of my activity done on my iPhone is Wifi connected at home or work. This thread also helped remind me why I'm heading into AT&T next week to change my data plan. I have two phones with 5gb of data usage allowed per month and so far, in the past year, neither my wife or myself have exceeded even 500mb. This will cut our phone bill in half.
