    Default Samsung Galaxy 10.1 Tablet uses for automotive/racing application?

    So I just bought a Chromebook 14" laptop for my wife to replace the Samsung Galaxy 10.1" Tablet she was using. She preferred a laptop over a tablet. Anyway, before I post it up for sale I was curious if it might have some useful purpose to warrant hanging onto it? Thinking something automotive related, data logging, etc. (although I can already run trackmaster on my android phone and it works really well.)

    Sorry it's a pretty open ended question. Thought I'd ask before I sell it and then regret it.

    Reading about the app some, why not use the app on the tablet with another datalogger for your car? If it has 3G/LTE built in its great for not draining your phones battery when using it for maps, web browsing, ect.
    For road trips my son likes to watch movies on it as well. Tablets now a days have become more handy to have around becuase of the hardware they now pack.


    Just my 2 cents. I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 and I am not going to get rid of it til I can afford the newer one that just came out

    Haven't had much interwebz time the last week so slow getting back to this...

    Thanks for the suggestions but I think I'm just going to sell it. Kids are grown and don't have any use for it. Think I prefer just to keep using my android phone with trackmaster for data logging. I also already run the free version of torque on my phone and have the mini OBD connector. If I'm having to think this hard to come up with a use for it, I guess I don't really need it. If I find a use later a 7 inch tablet would probably be a better size for in-car applications anyway.

    Thanks again.
