30 Day Android Challenge - Day 3

Today I really found myself missing "Ol Blue". I can't say there was any particular reason though. I think it has more to do with screen size. If you know me at all, you know I LOVE my Motorola Razr. For a cellphone, it's a great size with a 4.3" display, excellent battery life, beautiful pictures and superb sound for my tunes. Thing is, I don't enjoy scrolling, pinching, and jumping from app to app when it comes to paying bills or researching things for school. So, Google to the rescue! Tomorrow I will receive my Nexus 7 Google tablet. I let my ipod get too hot in the boat awhile back and it exploded. I hadn't bothered to replace it since my phone does everything I needed an ipod for and much much more. With a plane ride and road trip coming up, I realized what I used my ipod for the most. I have a few digital movies that make traveling more enjoyable. The laptop battery only lasts 2 hrs and I like to save my phone battery for....wait for it...actually making calls. LOL! The ipod was great for playing games, watching movies, and reading books during travel. Staying true to my Android challenge, I decided to give the Nexus 7 a try. It's small enough to slide in my purse and hopefully just big enough to do everything else without too much scrolling, pinching, and toggling.

Oh no! I think I might have to break my challenge! How will I load my movies without using a pc? I may have to skip my travel favs, Fast & Furious series, a few live concerts, and the Twilight series. Yes I just admitted to loving the Twilight movies. I guess I will watch the latest installment of Transformers since it comes pre-loaded on the Nexus and use the $25 Play credit that I received to purchase a new travel fav.

What is your travel "must have"?
