    Re: Which Tablet

    Higher screen res.
    Better camera front and rear.
    Expandable storage.

    If the iPad2 I have here was the 3g one then it might have made it out of the box but tbh I think I would still pick the Xoom out of the two, I like to faff with my toys and with the Apple theres just not the scope for that kinda thing.

    As for having something against Apple, its more something against the arrogant elitist fan boys...

    No, it isn't.

    In fact if anything, you're the troll as you don't seem to post anything useful. You just call people trolls and 'linger' about, offering nothing to any of the discussions going on.

    Re: Which Tablet

    Still stand by my Transformer, just think Honeycomb requires further maturity to make it a polished product. Will be interested to see what affect Android Ice-Cream-Sandwich has...

    Re: Which Tablet

    I'm waiting for the quad core tablets in a couple of months - I really want one but I think that's the point to grab one. Only not interested in the Apple due to the walled garden/lack of features by comparison - slick though they are it's obvious the competition is making big strides in catching up (and no doubt we'll see Apple have to react soon).

    It'll be very interesting to see if W8 tablets too next year - ain't competition great?

    Don't worry Apple will sue all the companies as they probaly have patented the photon or something like that.

    Sadly, you're probably right. We live in a World where patents + suing have become standard business practice.

    Apple still seems to be ignoring the widgets which imo are one of the greatest ideas in mobile phone os ever... But then I could just be an android fanboi
