Actually... There is a good handful of tablets that possess a processor ranging between 1.5ghz - 3ghz...

On top of that, I suppose handling the graphics on a small resolution of a tablet it could be reasonable...

But I suppose what it comes down to is the connectivity... Would you be able to sustain a proper connection with HTC's server? Would these people using tablets be super-warpy?

Meh I'll give it a +1 for idea and a -1 for so many unknowns

not the same processor as a desktop or a laptop.  I think they wont even measure up to the old single core cpu.  second of all where would you connect the joystick?  also look at your aces high folder and see how much space is needed, compare it to your tablet.

what you need to ask is a tablet version and I doubt that it will get done at this time.

Connectivity would not be much of an issue.

GPU would be. Note the "G"

Seriously though,  somehow being able to have your kneeboard on my effing Note 2... well, MY kneeboard, I don't care about yours, would be the pajamas that cats wear.

A tablet edition that gave "lite" MA access would be neat. Limited FM's to hold and sort.


Aces High "Light Armour"
You get access to the MA your ride choices are
M8, M16, M3, Jeep,

Or Aces High "Mobile Infantry"
You can transportand  target drunks on infantry missions (sappers for buildings, commandos with RPG's agin tanks) from
M3 , Jeep,

That doesn't solve the GPU problem.

Not saying otherwise, but a wish for a billion of one's national money units is also a valid wish in that context.  hitech posted about the GPU problem is this thread which means that it isn't a doable wish at this time.

Actually, out of curiosity, I tried using my IPad that I jailbreaked with windows 7 installed; I was able to install AH2 and get it to load offline...

Coincendently, I can hold 22Fps with graphics turned down...

Now, I just to find a reasonable method of aircraft control xD




By the way, I don't reccomend doing this with you IPad, I merely tried this out of curiosity and experimental purposes...
