I have an option from work to buy a tablet tax-free, however it has to be in the next week, and I have a limited choice. Unfortunately the Samsung Tab 10.1 is not on the list, otherwise I wouldn't even be contemplating.
1) LG Optimus Pad
Pros:
Dual Core
Honeycomb
Cons:
Expensive!
2) HTC Flyer
Pros:
Stylus
HTC Sense
Cons:
Android 2.2
Small
Single Core
3) Samsung Galaxy Tab (1)
Pros:
?
Cons:
Android 2.2
Single core
4) iPad2 32GB Wifi&3G -
Pros:
UI
Dual Core
Size
Cons:
iTunes
Apple-locked-in-ness
lack of expansion
The LG is just so expensive! I can't believe it - there is a 40% premium over the iPad2. It is a tough pill to swallow, but I think I will have to. Or is it worth getting an iPad and hacking it?
My main concern on Flyer is that the new apps which will come out this year wont work on it.
