Apple certainly did a great job to create the tablet market, but lately it seems to me they have fallen behind and now others, especially Samsung, are the innovators.
The Galaxy Note smart phone and tablets are fantastic tools that bring great handwriting recognition to note taking. And Samsung has tablets of many more sizes than Apple who finally made a 7" tablet after many other manufacturers proved the demand was there.
While they still make a great product, I think they are losing their place as the top innovator in their fields.
