Ipad 2 just killed the Xoom

[UNC]

XOOM.....NO FLASH.....NO NELFIX.....NO HAPTIC.....WHERE'S THE BAROMETER.....NO FM RADIO.....NO XM / SIRUS SATELLITE RADIO BUILT IN.....NO 3D. THIS XOOM THING I OWN AND GOING TO RETURN TO BEST BUY IS A HALF BAKED PREMATURE BIRTH JUNK. MANY MANY TABS WILL BE OUT SOON PUTTING THIS THING BACK ING THE BOX JUST LIKE THAT CRAPPY GALAXY TAB I TOOK BACK. HOW DISAPPOINTING. SEEMS IPAD IS THE ONLY TAB EVEN WITHOUT FLASH YHAT IS PRETTY MUCH JAMMING STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BOX.

Based on the caps lock and the vitriol in this post, I don't know if this guy/girl has ever even held a Galaxy, Xoom, or iPad. I can't read the post count since I'm using the app, but I imagine its <10...

I prefer the iPad, its a much smoother and more rewarding device, to me anyway. But with that being said, the Galaxy and Xoom are not the Archos or the Kmart Tablet, they are actually really great devices. My whole point was not to put down the Android tablets, it was merely to point out that iPad1 is much, much more responsive, even with much lesser specs.

And about the Playbook... All of you are selling the PB way too short. I am 100% sure that the PB will outsell the Xoom. It has much better looking hardware and equivalent specs, it also should be able to run all Android apps, as well as RIM's "super apps", all while retaining a $500 price point. It also has a new OS built specifically for dual-core cpus.

Listen I worked for the people.
First OSX only supports maybe 400 pieces of hardware. Maybe microsoft should kill support for all the old crap people hang on to.
Next average hole, backdoor, open port and etc... takes about six to eight months to fix.
Apple just plain milks their people. I pad, I pad 2, I pad 3, how many versions of the phone, hey lets name our service packs and sell them....

I have a I pad sitting here only 32gig but have one, yay I still can't find the SD card slot...

PS. Just sold a Sager to a Mac book pro guy.. lol he loves it hell I miss it

Yes on old hardware omg I was talking to that guy he said he paid like $2600 and the thing only had a 9700GS half gig card.
Wow.

Well it was pretty, lol

I'm asking this nicely. Please act adult and simply discuss the topic at hand without attacking members and getting out of hand. Is it really impossible to discuss an Apple product on here without going off the deep end? Maturity should say otherwise.

Didn't you know that the type of device you "back" correlates directly with the type of human being you are? ...

The day the Apple vs Android discussion on DF.net doesn't need a mod's intervention will be the day I... well... do something crazy and unheard of.

People care too much about this stuff, to the point of complete irrationality.

Yep. Just like religion. Just like politics.

This thread has run its course please if you want to discuss the ipad go to our ipad forum: iPad Forum

If you want to discuss the xoom you can either discuss it here in our xoom section or got to our xoom forum: Motorola Xoom Forum

Both the ipad and xoom are great devices and that is why we have forums dedicated to both of them.

Thanks.
