I'm curious: Do you find you use the iPad more because of that one app? Or, is the iPad strictly used for At Bat, and the rest of your time (email, browsing, etc.) used on the Xoom?
I know Apple likes to advertise how many apps they have, but you're the first person that I've seen who has claimed to purchase hardware based on app availability...
- shuchton 16y agoI think most people would choose hardware based on App availability. So, for baseball, absolutely. The iPad has a better tablet version of At Bat 11. In more general terms, I'm still figuring my use patterns out. I've had the iPad since it came out in Mar 2010. I've had a Xoom since the WiFi model came out in Mar 2011. To be as objective as possible, I'd still tell my non tech savvy friends and family to go with the iPad. The whole experience (not just hardware specs) is smoother. Right now, the Xoom is fun, but a lot of what I use the iPad for is not available yet. Netflix, Hulu, and Zinio are all either not working at all or require hacks. I thrive on figuring out how to make that stuff work, but my parents do not. Since this is a post about MLB, I'll leave my deeper thought on the subject for a later post.
