I have a Toshiba Thrive tablet that is on its last legs (almost 6 years old). I love it, but it is no longer available for purchase. I am on the hunt for a tablet that still has a full-size usb port that allows you to plug in a thumb drive.
I do not want a mini laptop. Last Christmas DH got me an Acer One 10 that has a detachable keyboard to use as a tablet. After very minimal use, the tablet has stopped communicating with the keyboard. The usb port for the thumb drive is located on they keyboard and now I can't use it the way I need to use it most.
The reason the thumb drive is so important is that we are on satellite internet and I can't watch videos directly as it stops & buffers too much. I download videos on my computer, put them on the thumb drive, then watch on my tablet. I have tried downloading directly to the tablet, but that takes longer and hasn't been working very well.
A Surface it too pricey for what I want to use the tablet for, I'm looking for something much more economical.
Thanks for any suggestions.
