    Absolutely nothing.

    It's just the best tablet that's out there, short of maybe the Galaxy Tab.

    Basically, at the moment, you can have either an Android powered tablet or an IOS powered tablet.

    It's the exact same decision as to buying a Droid or an iPhone.

      It is not a computer, but with the exception of word or excel, it's the same to me. I have had an iPad from work for about 30 days. I am almost done with my pc.

            they are ridiculous. android tabs are way better and faster but since it an "i" device people will buy it.

              Not an apple fan boy but can't stand the android tablet thing. I gave it plenty of opportunities but it's a pile. I've had a jail broke 3GS for 2 years finally upgraded to 4s. Can't wait till they jailbreak it.

                I got to play with the Motorola xoom today looks like xoom2 will be a real contender.

                  if you've never owned one or used one for a period of time, your opinion isn't worth much to the OP.

                  I love my iPad 2 and iPhone 4s. I gave droid a shot for 3 months and went back to apple. It's like a glock, simple and reliable. Droids are like a 1911: for people that like to customize. Out of the box my iOS products have been more reliable and user friendly.

                      I wish that'd been the case for my wife and I. User friendly, yes. Reliable? Not even close. Bought our contracts out after 6 months because we were tired of dropped calls and sluggish performance after the 4.3 upgrade.

                      Link? I haven't heard anything like that, most articles I've read indicate early next year like Q2.

                        User friendly and reliable. I really wanted to jump on the Android bandwagon but every tablet I've tried was sluggish and not as responsive as an iPad. And then one day I said OK let me give this overhyped ipad2 a try. The rest is history. Nothing comes close IMHO.

                            it'll be more of a consumption device as Apple puts it. You can view, read, do some minor editing, and so forth. It's great because Apple was able to market and make a tablet that is comfortable , portable and not too hard to use (unlike the past iterations of converted laptops)

                            Plus if you know how to use an iPhone or iPod touch, it'll be easy to use this. That and their large library of apps on their iTunes store.
