What tablet are you using?

Works like a champ for both HEX-CAN and HEX-NET.
HEX-NET of course is platform independent, but that wasn't your question
I really like the Surface but couldn't justify the cost as VCDS is my only Windows need.
Bonus on the Surface is the full size USB cables instead of the hokey OTG dongle.

Has to be a Pro model - the RT is a non-Intel processor.
Probably why there are so many of them for sale.
I almost made that mistake myself.
Per FAQ 1.16

There are two versions of these tablets, "Surface" and "Surface Pro".
The regular "Surface" tablets are based on ARM CPUs running "Windows RT" and have no compatibility with normal Windows x86 programs.
The regular Windows-based version VCDS will not work on these, but VCDS-Mobile does.
The "Surface Pro" tablets use Intel CPUs and Windows 8 Pro, and VCDS will works fine on them.

I've been real happy with my Venue Pro 8, and even use it for work a little.
For $305 it's not a bad deal
Uwe turned me on to this and it arrived yesterday It's better than the straight one I got at first - cable is easier to manage and it doesn't put as much pressure/stress on the port.
I do think a stylus is a must have with these smaller tablets.
Small check boxes are easier to use, but make sure you get the new version "REV A02" if you get the Dell.

Just make sure to get an OTG adapter to get a 'normal' size USB plug.Uwe turned me on to this and it arrived yesterday It's better than the straight one I got at first - cable is easier to manage and it doesn't put as much pressure/stress on the port.
