How to animate a View with Translate Animation in Android?

What is the best device to take notes digitally?

• I am a student and future teacher. All of my textbooks are electronic (formatted in .pdf files, microsoft word, and powerpoint). I am looking for a device which allows me to take notes digitally and read my textbooks as well as other e-books. I wish to do the following: Open a program to a blank page and start taking notes digitally using a stylus in a process that mirrors using a pen and paper as much as possible. If possible, I would like the device to have a "button" to "translate" my markings into digital typewritten fonts if I wish my notes to be typewritten. Open a program that allows me to view my text books and highlight, underline, or write on those documents little notes as I see fit. Use the device in such a way that most of the documents I use when I get my job as a teacher will be digital rather than not. Of course any other functions that are available on the device would be great. I have been looking into Android Tablets, netpads, etc. But I cannot get a clear answer as to if any of these devices will provide the functionality I wish it to have. I am looking to spend around $150. Can you make any recommendations?

  Hi Christopher HTC Flyer is one of the more affordable tablets I've found which would provide you with the tools you need now and for your future profession as a teacher. It runs on Android and is very efficient in doing the tasks you need to do. HTC Flyer allows the user to view PDF documents directly, without file conversion needed. It also allows you to scribble down notes and edit documents using applications like Documents to Go. Highlight, encircle, underline words in your notes as you see fit. The scribbled notes would automatically be converted into typewritten text and you can save it and have it printed out later if needed.
