Ouch Rick!!!!! I hope you've got a great story for all that pain.
I've never tried an android. I LOVE my iPad. I couldn't be without it now.
I hope you're feeling great soon. I guess you'll be playing tambourine for a while. ... I was going to say cowbell.... Oops.... Tambourine it is.
Thinking of you mate and sending you good vibes. Maybe you can get a cool hat for the occasion.

Brutal, Rick!
Hope you didn't offend someone with the wrong hat somewhere..
I'd go iPad. I use mine every day.
And as you know, Apple will eventually take over the world anyway.
Get well soon!

Well that’s not good Rick! … Sorry to hear about your accident. I hope the surgery went well and your recovery is a speedy one.
It sounds like it’s a good time to brush up on some theory. Re: your question; I think the iPad is your best bet.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Oh man, what a bummer! Sounds painful, too. Hopefully, everything will turn out well.
I have an Acer A500 tablet (Android). The main reason that I got it was to use as a teleprompter for my music. It works great for that. The added bonus is that I can do a ton of other things. Haven't used my laptop in a month or so. There were a couple of reasons why I got this one over an ipad or another Android tablet.
1 Full sized USB port and micro USB port - I can directly connect my portable hard drives without jumping through any hoops to access or transfer files.
2 Micro HDMI port - Just started using this. Plug directly into a TV or projector with an HDMI port , and I can watch a movie or make a presentation.
3 Internal memory expansion card is micro SD - That's compatible with all my other stuff.
4 Gorilla Glass - This stuff is tough. Have it on my cell phone, and, after a year and a half, it still looks like new without a screen protector.
As far as running programs and TG stuff, I haven't had any problems as long as I have a good Internet connection. As far as the Android over ipad battle (ease of use and program availability), I won't go into that, because I just don't have the experience in the Apple world. All I've got is an ipod, and it sits on the shelf most of the time. I guess I never really cared for the itunes thing.
Hope you are feeling better soon.

Good job you had the sense to land on your head rick! Ouch! I think you mentioned being a para-medic? Does that mean your are on a motor bike at work usually? Seriously, Dennis is right that could have been really nasty.
