Mobility probably also include weight and battery life.
A macbook air/ultrabook probably have a ~5h of battery when streching it, a tablet could last a whole day ( and probably 2 ) without a sweat.
And they both have the same weight.
There is a lot of work that can be done/ tested on android depending on your work ( botbrew provide gcc plus other scripting environment for example). Making you less dependent on the internet connection.
There is other options to code source editing on tablet ( droidedit being one good option ).
On the adapter issue, even on macbook pro/air people usually forget to bring adapter, and most projector in the wild still use the good old VGA adapter.
And while I agree with some points, I think this was mostly an experiment ( successful for him to some degree ) , like the guy who tried to work only with his iPad before. And like other experiments, results are open to discussion.
- film42 13y agoI think some of your stats are a little excessive, nonetheless, and to some extent, I agree. Still though, It really left a bad feeling when the author went on about how much money he was saving. My undertone (could have been more clear) was that, that is ridiculous.
- bergie 13y agoThe money saving part is obviously of little consequence, it was there mainly because people had asked about it several times, and also because I'm constantly amazed how cheap modern technology has become
- bergie 13y agoPortability and battery life were certainly the main points, not hardware costs :-) I'm explaining the reasons and the pros and cons better in the original post: http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/working-on-android/ http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/working-on-android/
