Yet, an iPad can't sync with and iPod, so I still need a pc to download my tunes and sync them on to my iPod. Or, I can just get a Windows tablet and then it will do what the iPad won't. That makes me wonder what other useful things that a Windows tablet can do that an iPad can't or won't.

my iPad 2 got a 3G connect problem. Hv to re-start each time too often. Called Apple and say they knew of the problem and looking into it.

Apple has a built in market of boomers who used to be anti-establishment/anti-microsoft. Now they are all middle aged yuppies who want to make sweet passionate love to Steve Jobs and will buy whatever crap he happens to be peddling.

asus ep121 is the best w7 slate hands down. wacom digitizer and the freedom to do whatever you want is fantastic. intel i5 cpu slaughters any arm or atom cpu. w7 mature os destroys puny phone os like ios and buggy honeycomb android os. you can run full photoshop and full office 2010 at full speed! you can load any browser you want. you can dual boot android if you want or ubuntu linux.

Inferior how?
You mean by having an OS that can do so much more?

The Asus EP121 has at or less than 4 hours battery. Will not make it for a 8 hour shift of work. The iPad is absolutely worthless when it comes to really running a business with it. Sure, it is a far superior product, I agree. BUT no one writes code for Apple in the real business world. So far, no one is really impressing me. At all.
