Re: [Health] Health Digest, Vol 5, Issue 22

[Christoph H. Larsen]

Dear All,
Excellent tip. However, in a clinical environment, and even more so
outside the Indian subcontinent, there are a few points to consider:
Robustness (these things will be thrown around!), gorilla glass cover?,
battery life.
Also, availability of service in-country (spares, such as batteries,
chargers, screen, etc. will be required).
With this price, it is certainly worth while to buy and test one. I
would be happy to do so, but how to get it into Vietnam, or East Africa,
or Europe???
Merry Christmas to all of you!
Chris
