Hey cypherpunks, I have never really used a tablet before. When I say "tablet" I, like many, picture in my head an iPad. I would like to order a tablet or two online. My six criteria are: 1) Hackable. So that I could put some generic Linux thing on it, the way an everyday smart user, who is not employed by the Free Software Foundation, puts Ubuntu on their laptop or Cyanogenmod/LineageOS on their smartphone. Without spending my life trying to get it to work, but some struggle is okay, around the struggle required to get Cyanogenmod/LineageOS working on a typical USian smartphone, etc 2) Durable/rugged. 3) Fairly convenient. Maybe a few more ports than usual, a few more options than usual, maybe some extra power sources or something like that. 4) Certified refurb would be nice 5) Price range around idk $250-$300 or something per tablet. Amazon.com says "New Apple iPad (10.2-Inch, Wi-Fi, 32GB) - Space Gray (Latest Model)" costs around $280: https://www.amazon.com/Apple-iPad-10-2-Inch-Wi-Fi-32GB/dp/B07XL7G4H6/ But of course surge pricing and out-of-stock is happening everywhere because it's corona time. So maybe something in stock would be great, older or whatever 6) External keyboard accessory would be nice and perhaps mandatory, link to this also p|0x? Planned use: 1) Hook it up to SDR to scan the local security forces -- cops, fire, etc -- leave it set up in home that way doing that 2) Backup / travel / bug out bag If more than one, perhaps identical/similar in different colors for ease of telling them apart quickly or sharing them with other human beings If anyone can offer some recommendations, I will say something mean about a so-called Great Man aspirant soon on my twitter feed Thanks <3 Doug
