I will admit the iPad has more apps that are made for tablets, but the Transformer gets the job done. If you are seriously considering going with an Android tab though, you should try and hold out for a month or so. The new Transformer is supposed to hit this fall and its going to be the first tablet with the Nvidia Kal-El processor in it. You could either spring for the new shiny one or you could probably get a deal on the current generation if you waited.
great info, I will wait to see how much the current transformer will drop in price! -

OptionsChris:/* Member Posts: 658 ■■■■■■■■□□I really like it especially for school. Most online training videos are flash based so that eliminated ipads for me. I use the kindle book app, safari books online and coursesmart books with no problems. The battery life is fantastic no matter what I do. I use rdesktop to log into my other power boxes to pull data as required. My only complaint is I wish Google Market was not up and down, up and down, but that is not a complaint against the Android just its support infrastructure.Degrees:

A guy I worked with tested one. He said it was good but there is a major lack of apps for it.Decide what to be and go be it. -

The only thing that suprises me about this is that he said it was good. After the experience I had with the Storm, I will never buy a BlackBerrry product again and once upon a time I loved BBs. -

In other words.... Honeycomb runs very smooth, and quad core Tegra's are a ways off so the $350 price I got on it was very nice. + 128 for kb. -

Yeah my judgement was based on Android 2.x based tabs. After playing with Honeycomb over the weekend I am a convert. -

I would find it convenient for me to have a portable light weight device that would play wmv. files ex. cbt nuggets.
I am thinking of buying the ipad 2 but from experience can someone recommend a good table to use for viewing videos and reading text
This chart may help.
