                              I own an ipad 2 since they were sold in usa. I think ios is ok for tablets but only once jailbroken I am on ios 5 jailbroken and I love ipad 2 + xbmc nothing like streaming media from pirvate ftp/samba servers. If it is not jailbroken media playback sucks.

                                  I love my Android mobile phones, but there is no tablet that comes close to matching the iPad, especially for media content.

                                    Using the iPad 2 with two hands is pretty hard too in some scenarios. For example, it’s almost impossible to type properly unless you have very long thumbs (or huge hands). It’s also uncomfortable to interact with most of the apps this way

                                        To be honest - I had a play on the Acer Iconia & to be quite frank it was, well, a pile of poo. The lag was unbelievable & the screen was more unresponsive than my old WM6 resistive phones. Flip from landscape to portrait & wait a while - whistle a tune & then oh it's finally caught up. Couple that with the lack of apps at the mo & it's a long, long way behind the ipad in any variant. I also played on an ipad in the apple store & it was silky smooth. They have every reason to be proud of it. It just works.

                                        The only one I've seen come even close is the original galaxy tab running on android 2.3.

                                        Not sure if it's a symptom of 3.0 being soooo sloooow (as reported widely on tech blogs), or the vast majority of tabs being underpowered for a processor hungry OS. I suspect that Android is to blame rather than the hardware but at the moment none of them can match the ipad on real world performance.

                                        I'll wait until ice cream sandwich comes out before making a choice on what to buy but if I was to spend money now - I'd feel like I'd wasted it if I bought anything other than an ipad
