Dont ...Anything with i before it is overpriced. Go android I have the new xt910 RAZR and is in my opinion far more superior to the iphone. The Motorola xoom2 is a better option to the ipad

I still rate my Desire HD and Ice Cream Sandwich will be pushed out for it shortly and when the contract is up I will still stay Android. We have recently acquired a Sony S tablet this too will be updated to ICS in the next couple of weeks as the roll out for that has started, I like this tablet as its more rugged and chunky ergonomic design (the kids and the Mrs use it ) and you can play some PS1 games on it and it talks to the controller, h and you can use it to turn the telly over with it

Sadly my stepson has gone through two iphones in as many months..I personly do not touch such modern junk and don't know anything about these phones or the supa dupa oh poo i broke my screen touch pad gizmo's coz thats all they are nowadays. I don't know what they are like for there reliability but judging by my stepsons two iphones and the constant problems i think modern junk wording is very abt for this kind of over priced fragile technoligy...If someone offered me an iphone or ipad then my answer is no thinks i got an actual phone that works..I'm shocked at the amount of youngsters who have these new fandango phones but i can here them say to Mum or Dad me screen cracked or it stopped working..Ohh no me numbers have gone and me dodgy photos

I don't actually hate Apple, I do have an old G3 (Wallstreet) Powerbook laptop; but OS9.2.2 was the last update! As far as the current crop of iToys are concerned, yes, they're pretty but grossly overpriced but my main gripe is Apple lock everything down. You need an app for your iPhone or iPad, then go to the Apple AppStore and buy it. You want some music to put on your iPhone or iPod, then go to the Apple store and buy it. And then you can only play it using iTunes! And if you're an budding App writer, you have to get your Apps approved by Apple before you can get them published.
At least with an Android based system; I have a Galaxy 10.1 tablet, as a user I have much more control over what I install on it and where I get the download from; Google Play which used to be called the Android Market, Samsung Apps, or wherever. And I can easily transfer files to and from my PC, including music and videos as and when I want.

If it ain't broke, fix it 'til it is.
Any similarity between prototype and production equipment is purely coincidental.
