   I should have asked. Do those tablets charge just like a cellphone?   
   The one problem I had with that old laptop I used to have was the   
   battery was almost dead and a replacement battery was almost as costly   
   as a newer whole laptop computer. Plus it needed a special charger. I   
   have a cellphone charger with what appears to be the standard plug on   
   most phones these days. I have a plug in one for the house and another   
   one for the cig lighter in my car. Do those tablets have the same plug?
