5 devices run iOS: iPhone, iPod Touch, Apple TV, iPad, and soon to be iPad mini. How many android devices does Samsung or Moto or HTC make?

What are the odds that the $299 or $329 Ipad mini has more hardware firepower than the Nexus 7?
Basically it will come down to the 32nm A5 or the A6. I'm guessing it will be the A5. So I'm going to say 1% it has more hardware firepower than the Nexus 7.

RAM, guaranteed the Nexus 7 will have more Resolution: unless Apple surprises everyone and it has a retina screen the nexus 7 will beat it. Connectivity: I think apple will have an LTE model, so there's that. Storage: Even.

I don't think the $299 base model Ipad mini will have LTE. Though I'm sure some media review will shamelessly pit the $399 Ipad mini with LTE against the $199 Nexus 7.

I'm pretty bummed about buying the other Retina MBP. 13" would be good enough for me. Oh well, I can give this one to my wife

iPad mini will have 7.85" 4:3 screen. Almost 6x as big as an iPhone and 40% bigger than 7" Android tablets.
So? What purpose does that serve? People loved phones with nice screens. Then companies came out with pads, which were basically identical to phones (except maybe for the ability to call on most of them) but with larger screens, and people ate those things up. "OMG I have to get the new ___pad." Well now it's literally the exact same thing, just in a size that's in between phones and larger pads.
quote:
When Samsung releases a 7" Galaxy Tab why aren't you saying "isn't that just a Galaxy Note?" which at this point is only 1.5" smaller.
I don't keep up with this shit, that's why. If I had seen that, I'd have said the exact same thing. I don't blame the companies for making/selling these things, because people will buy them regardless. BUt people are idiots...Apple fanboys and Samsung fanboys alike. Rest assured, I laugh at all of you equally.

See, this is your problem. You assume all criticism is "opposing fanboy" criticism, when really it's just logical people wondering why this shite is necessary (or why people feel like it is, rather). Your immediate response is Apple-defensive and Other-Company-offensive. It's hilarious(ly sad).

It's just funny that both times someone made a statement or asked a (non sunshine pumping) question about the product, he immediately tried to throw Samsung, Motorola, or HTC back in his response to compare. Very telling IMO.
