Good Tablet For Field Work

[Jocose]

I am making a system that will allow some plumbers to have customers digitally sign contracts and forms using a tablet and a stylus.

Short of installing Linux on an android tablet, and perhaps ruining the battering life, and having other problems, I need to find a good windows 8 tablet that would be good for this task.

• Good battery life (may not be able to plug in for awhile on long service calls)
• A keyboard for entering data (although a separate Bluetooth one would be fine)
• A stylus (again if it doesn't come with one a separate one could be bought but it is required for customers to sign forms)
• Enough power to run a local Apache server & handle basic php scripts to run the system.


Does anyone have any good recommendations?

So far I have looked at the following:

• ASUS Transformer Book T100TA
• Samsung ATIV Smart PC 500T
• Lenovo IdeaTab K3 Lynx 11.6-Inch 64 GB Tablet
• Lenovo IdeaTab Miix 2 8 8-Inch 64 GB Tablet

I'd personally lean toward the Asus Transformer Book due to its' inclusion of the keyboard attachment. I'd also say the Microsoft Surface Pro if you can find a first generation model but they're quite a bit more expensive.
