I know that this must have come up before but I have done a search and found nothing, probably used the wrong terms! Apologies.
I tour Europe in my motorhome (MH) quite a lot and use a Galaxy S3 and a Windows laptop. When on campsites, our outside retailers offering free wi-fi I use my laptop with a wi-fi booster. This is a largish aerial-like device that clamps onto the outside of my MH using a suction pad and it pulls in wi-fi from a far greater distance than my Galaxy S3 can manage.
I also prefer the laptop for sending mail, using my banking app (Pocket Money) and web browsing as, obviously, larger is easier.
I'd like to buy a good-sized tablet to replace my laptop but want one where I can plug in my booster to a usb socket, just like my laptop.
Are they available yet? I know that I can buy a further attachment that my booster plugs into to create a wi-fi field that any device can use, but this is a messy business when first logging on to a source and it needs a 12v power input, which I can do but it's another complication.
When I first researched this I couldn't find a tablet that had this usb booster facility, or would take the necessary software.
Finally, stupid question I know but can I add printers to an Android tablet? I'm more concerned with Desk PDF Writer, which is installed as a printer and will allow me to convert documents to a pdf and email them.
