Why do we compare Android OS to Apple OS they're completely different in many ways. Android always going to be a work-in-progress OS. The tablet releases and those who make the tablet are not allowed to install Android Market on them is just complete nonsense. First opensource then there making apps for $0.00 or higher. I don't see the gain on opensource free OS then we have to pay for beta software that still buggy. Tablet idea is great but frankly I only see one bug after another with 18 tablets and some of these e-readers that are trying to be made into a tablet just can't do it with all sorts of issues. Just plain bad hardware in some.

Well I see this debate going to go on and on. HoneyComb biggest issue is the color bug which is internal gives you null. How that didn't get catch and now the rush is on for either Android OS 3.1 or just pull out the Android OS 4.0 to fix that major glitch so everyone now will say we can run this on smartphone and tablet.

Back at the Terga2 camp they have told everyone that dual core is operating at 1GHz which would make it 2GHz but actually it's only running at 550MHz on each core to reduce increase battery that would give you 1.1GHz. Where their single core which was 1GHz was running at max. So performance wise on a web browser would be 146% higher than is was with a signal core 1GHz at 100%.

These companies don't care about the consumer they do anything to make money and that's what way it is. HP look they sell you dirt cheap color ink printers then you have to replace the ink and that ink cost more than what you paid for the printer. So what do you do? Most just go and buy a new printer then go and spend more for the same printer. Best to just buy a only laser, but that toner can get expensive as well.

Money is being made no matter what we all say.
