    Anyone else frustrated with Apple/Mac?

    I like macs, they are the only thing I use at the house. I do have ubuntu dual loaded on one for fun. But for phones and tablets it is android all the way. I had the first 3 iphones, and while they do what they do well, and updates are standardized. They just don't float my boat, and I hate...

    Best tablets for navigation?

    I use a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 with Backcountry Navigator Pro ($9.99 for offroad) and Sygic (Free I think, but you have to buy maps for on-road) the built in gps is great and the tablet is only $199 I added a 32GB MocroSD card for $40. It has been a great set-up for me.

    ipad mini as a gps

    I almost agree, I would look at a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0" It has a Micro SD slot, which will allow you to add a 32GB card for storage, and built in gps. I have this as my set-up.

    Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx or Goodyear DuraTrac's???

    I have driven BFG KO's here in the winter, and that is why they are not in my list of consideration. For the winter conditions I face they are not good at all.
