Sometimes a 10-inch tablet is too large and a 7-inch tablet is too small. For those Goldilocks circumstances, the few 9-inch tablets on the market can make due.

My friends like to joke that they’re bitter because it’s the 21st century and we don’t have our jetpacks. The 21st century is damn different from how it was portrayed in the media of our childhood; The Jetsons have a lot to answer for. However, “different” doesn’t mean bad. I made a recent long […]
