Title: Replacing BM's Tablet
Post by: Grumpmeister on November 16, 2013, 06:59:02 PM
Had a quick look online to see if anyone made tablets for the cack handed and this one may fit the bill. It has milspec certification for ruggedness and damage protection so should be able to handle being knocked off the side of the bath day to day wear and tear with BM.
