Hi, I`am using an old Asus 696 PDA with Wmobil 6 and of course pockettopo. It works very well. Once I have lost the original pencil in the cave and I couldn`t find it anymore. It was not so easy, but the surveying on that day was made with my fingernail âº. A replacement for the original was found quick and very cheap. BTW, I have now a second pencil in my small case and both have got a tiny hole for a thread. Other members have tried out some android apps. But as I have seen (2014) there was no app which was able to kalibrate/justify the DistoX. But that is not really a problem, I think.

I posted this on cave chat.org<http://chat.org> but no replies: So I'm awaiting shipment of my DistoX2. I've never used one before. I am trying to figure out what the best tablet is to use with it. I am using Therion but I am new to that as well. I used to use Walls and before that On Station. I have zero experience with paperless cave surveying. I have never used Pocketopo or Topodroid which makes it hard to decide between windows or android. Topodroid seems to be set up well for use with Therion, but again I have no idea; I've never used an android device only iPhone and iPad. I see the new ipad pro has a stylus - are there cave survey/disto apps that run on iPad? A new windows surface pro3 tablet seems like a good idea but are there good waterproof cases? Xperia Z4 tablet claims IP68 - can it handle a cave without a case? I can't seem to find any suitable rugged cases for it. If price was not a factor what set up would you use?
