Forgot the other books at home…When I go to school, the only thing that I need to remember is my tablet (no printing, paper, essays, etc.)When I’m at school all I need is my tabletWhen I walk home from school all I need to carry is my tablet - comfortably
So why do I use a Tablet PC? Because it helps me to learn.
