With the popularity of Tablet PCs such as iPads, Kindles, and iReaders, I thought why can't my sims have one too? Are we only stuck with desktops and (custom) laptops for them? So I decided to take on the daunting task of making my own. This particular tablet is loosely based off of the iPad, but it's not meant to be a carbon copy of it. The tablet will function just as a regular PC does in all ways. Poly count = 538.
Some things to note -
There is a "ghost" mouse and on switch as we see with any custom computers that don't conform to Maxis standard desktop computer mesh shapes.
Sims will gaze facing froward instead of looking down because it was cloned from a Maxis computer, however sims will gaze facing down while typing.
I already edited the TXMT, so the screen appears brighter than standard Maxis Base Game screens, so the mod to make computer screens brighter has no affect here.
Sims can play computer games on them, but the games are cropped just a bit.
Polygon Counts:
538

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

About Me
Welcome to my profile page. I hope you enjoy my downloads here as much as I enjoy making them and sharing them with you!
My Policy - I think my policy is pretty fair. You can use my creations with sims, or lots. You can recolor my creations as well. You may also clone my objects with extra functionality. There is no need to clone any objects that use standard functionality. You may also edit my meshes. Feel free to convert for other Sims games. I ask that you please let me know if you use any of my creations first and provide me with a link after uploading so that I can see the work you have done! Please give credit, and a link to the original download in your upload. No Paysites, Please
Regarding Requests - I have received many requests here that I feel are unnecessary, or something I think that others would not find very useful. Also I like to share what I can think of myself with my own creativity, and not someone else. I ask that you respect my wishes not to fulfill any requests. The only request I take are for custom Sims 2 majors.
For movie making, picture taking, and storytelling there is no need to provide any credit. You may freely use any of my creations for this purpose.
