While this is not a terrible unit, I would not recommend it unless the touch screen/tablet feature is important. The biggest issue is the readability of the screen. Because, I assume, of the touch-screen feature, there is a reflecting, plastic cover that picks up every bit of light, fingerprint, etc. The screen is very difficult to read if you are, say, riding on a train (where there are open windows) or otherwise working near lights or windows. In addition, the battery life is not as advertised. Keep an adapter or extra battery in your brief case. You will them.
Other than that, it is pretty fast, portable and filled with all the bells and whistles.
