We are about to go mobile and want to run EstLIte on a tablet which also has 3g so we can take payment. Just wondering what others are using and how they have found it.
thanks

Re: mobile pricing
presumably you have a tablet running a form of windows that will allow you to load and run the program?

Re: mobile pricing
EstLite will be fine on any Windows laptop but is not run natively any of the mobile operating systems.

Re: mobile pricing
I haven't got a tablet yet I guess I was just seeing if anyone could recommend a particularly good one for this job. We were thinking of the microsoft surface which comes with excel, word etc. but if anyone can recommend a better one we are not set in stone.
Re: mobile pricing
As far as I am aware you would have to get the surface pro as this is the only tablet running windows that will allow you to load conventional windows applications. Even then I would have a lot of questions to ask before buying one. Microsoft seem to have produced bit of a Turkey with the Surface as they seem to change the spec and price quite frequently. You may well be better off going for a laptop with touchscreen. Few of those around and the format isnt far away from tablet size - so easy to take to customers home. You can run all the office type programs on an iPad - word processing/spreadsheets/etc. They run very well on the iPad Air.
I would think you might also need to have illustrations of mouldings - design possibilities and so on - unless you intend to carry your samples.

Re: mobile pricing
Thanks for all the help, it has pointed us in the right direction. We are taking our chevrons with us as we have fitted out a high top van as a complete showroom ( including a built in full size plan chest!) . I will post some pics when it is finished which should be next week.
