    Yes, I think the Apple integration between devices is rather more "absolute" than the Samsung equivalent.  However, should I choose to return back to Samsung phone for better integration than my Moto, I will be able to do so without really incurring a significant cost penalty so long as I wait until the phone renewal cycle naturally rolls around.

    My daughter finds a Tab A9 with an Arteck Folding keyboard, entirely adequate for taking notes at college. The table was £99 on offer at John Lewis, the keyboard was £38.99 on Amazon.

    I have collected by tablet from Curry's and will set it up in the morning.

    I wondered if anyone has any comments about the best e-mail app to use.  I use Outlook on my PC and also the Android version of Outlook on my phone.  I like that it simply syncs the calendar.

    However, I have found that the Android version of Outlook will not allow me to use a POP3 e-mail account and I still have one such service active.  I can force the PC version of Outlook to still let the POP3 account work but not managed to find that in the Android version.

    Is there a way to force the Android version of Outlook to work with POP3?

    Or, would an alternative e-mail package be better for the tablet?
