- lawdawg 14y agoyou assume Android isn't trying to compete on features as well. Guess what, it is, and competing in various form factors and price. No offense, but unless this device blows the doors off in reviews (in battery life and usability) this thing is DOA. The Pro version might have better luck with the enterprise, but no reasonable person is going to buy an RT tablet that can't run desktop apps and lacks the ecosystem that Apple has.
- jan_g 14y agoExcuse me, but I believe it's actually the android ecosystem that produces many different products and the user really has a lot to choose from. One example: http://youtu.be/AxE_Im20UZM http://youtu.be/AxE_Im20UZM Another example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tX9KG369evA#t=10m34s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tX9KG369evA#t=10m34s Yet another: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Wf_PqPi2tw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Wf_PqPi2tw Now, I'm not saying that those examples are better than products from iOS or WinRT ecosystem, but you can hardly say that there's no innovation.
- lrem 14y agoWell, these are nice experiments. Remind me of the good old Nokia... In the meantime, the mainstream Android tablets (Fire, Nexus, Galaxy Tabs) are actually "me too" devices, lagging visibly behind the iPad. Disclosure: I'm a happy Android user, both phone and tablet.
