I travel a lot for work, and one of the necessary inconveniences is toting along a laptop so I can write while on the road. Don't get me wrong; the best laptops are great, but I've had this nagging feeling for some time now that there has to be a better solution. After all, I can't even work on a laptop when I fly, so I cobbled an iPad mini "laptop" as an alternative. But even that can't match my new setup.
I set out to find the perfect combination of devices to finally allow me to leave my laptop at home. As a big guy, I find the screen to be the biggest inconvenience when working on the go. On an airplane, or even just sitting with the laptop in my lap, I often don't have enough room to spread out the way I'd like. So, why not eliminate the screen entirely?
