iPad, or Android tablet?

I've known Steve since '92-still had to have them stand in line.

We're not bff's,but we still email on occasion.

I'll tell him he has another convert.

BTW,ours were purchased at a genuine Apple store-not a discount box store.

Everyone has to stand in line there.

Newsflash, they are all the same regardless where you buy them.

Maybe steve should have told you that before wasting your nephew's time. I guess if it makes you feel warm and fuzzy that it came from the mothership than all I can say is good luck. Lol.

[SanJoaquin]

Good luck if you need service or a loaner at? Target? was it?

Lol, Ipads from Target. How did it happen? Lol

Later

[LMITOUT]

Doesn't sound like you have much faith in your buddy Steve's product if you're concerned about loaners and warranty work. Maybe the next time you email him you can ask him what's up?

[SanJoaquin]

We have no problems running flash on them now.

The one nephew who stood in line has been @ Adobe for 6 years. He had them running flash before the batteries were charged.

Later,chore time.

[LMITOUT]

LOL.

[SanJoaquin]

Sooooo,I take it you're fine without it?

Well,if you want to know how just ask-but you're going to have to ask very,very nicely.

[Valv]

How do you do it ?

[LMITOUT]

Hey San, I thought you lived in California? Now you're in Tripoli Iowa? There was another guy from Iowa that used to post here but I haven't seen him post in while now.

I just got to play with an Ipad the other day, I must say its pretty neat, and the camera on it SUCKS. Gotta play with a android tablet next!

[LMITOUT]

I haven't even tried the camera yet and really dont have any plans to.

The Xoom wi-fi model is supposed to be out in a few weeks, but from what I read it sounds somewhat rough around the edges yet. I'm sure a OS update will help whenever that becomes available.

I just finished rooting my EVO and now have a wi-fi hotspot available for the iPad. Next item on the list is to clean off the bloatware along with restoring all the apps I lost when I wiped it. It needed a good cleaning anyway and now will probably just load up the stuff I really need and then make a recovery so I don't have to do this again if I flash a different ROM in the future.

I have been looking into a Tablet for my business but of course the programs that I use need to run on Windows so the IPAD and XOOM are out.

I would also wait until Android is stable enough that you can run all future software and Apps on an older version. How many versions of Android are there?

I looked at the HP Slate which is a windows based pad similar to the Xoom but I really want a bigger screen. In the end i will probably just get another laptop and wait a few years for these things to get established.

Sam's has the 16 gig WiFi iPad 1 for $388.00 I think I'm going to get one for my wife, since she wouldn't appreciate the differences in the 1 vs 2, except perhaps the weight & thickness.

At that price, you could use it for a couple years and because people trip all over themselves to buy Apple, you could sell it with no problem.
