Hi all
Got a BIG potential project coming up where we will be doing central-location, interviewer assisted surveys. They will all be in places where there is good wi-fi, so I am thinking that we'll set it all up as a normal web survey. That way we can monitor progress remotely, and if the tablets are lost or stolen we haven't lost the most valuable bit - the data.
Does anyone have any first-hand experience of this? What brand of tablet would you recommend? Everyone thinks of iPads first but I'm trying to keep an open mind. Interviewing will be pretty continuous over at least three years, so we'd want something pretty bullet-proof. I'm also thinking that having them SIM enabled would also give us a secondary way of connecting if the wi-fi in an area goes offline.
What do you reckon?
