@thanhnh-infinity and I have talked about this issue but just wanted to document it
@hdliv Could you try the first version for Android ?
@thanhnh-infinity I would need an android fist. @arlin do you know of someone with an andrioid that we could use for testing
sorry, i do not know
@\all, someone recommend a cheap android device, and I will buy it off the grant for testing purposes.
@arlin How about budget do you consider ?
It depends on how much we are going to use it. If we can take this to meetings (conferences, meetings with educators) and use it for demonstrations, then maybe it will be worthwhile to spend several hundred dollars to get a nice tablet. However, if it is just for testing, I want to spend as little as possible.

@thanhnh-infinity, do you want to make a recommendation on this? Something in the range of $100 to $300?
I have some phones/tablets, you may consider :

With Samsung Tablet, I have not found 3G/Wifi version, above tablet is Wifi only
Do you think 3G is important? I was assuming we would just rely on wifi. What about these?
if you want to go cheaper . Acer has tablets
I have another question. We want this for two different purposes: testing and demos (showing off the app to stakeholders). For demos, a tablet is preferable. But if most users are going to be using phones, then a phone-sized device is better for testing. What do you think?
I think phones are better because most of users are using phones (for both demo and testing) and it has both wifi and 3G.
have an Android version of the app for classroom exercises
