Watch a movie shot in 2:35.1 on an iPad and look how huge those black bars are and how small the picture is cramped, then watch the same movie on a Samsung or Toshiba, Xoom etc. then come back and tell me you don't notice the difference. I call BS on that.

I'm not sure what trouble you have with your phone, with mine I connect it to my computer both my WMP and Media monkey pick it up as Droid X, drag and drop, eject, no different than any other MP3 player or my nook for that matter.

I honestly don't see how hooking up an photo dongle accesory is anywhere nearly as easy or convienant as just popping in your card directly.

As far as cloud service, you do know both Amazon and and Google offer cloud service right? And for the record were out before Apple's
I buy a song from Amazon mp3 on my Droid X, it automatically goes not only to Amazon cloud, it automatically gets download to my stock player on my droid, my google cloud and when I turn on my pc it's waiting for me to hit download and it goes straight to WMP and media monkey. That's easy and much more spread out and flexable then iTunes

just sayin
Well, 29 million people disagree that view ratios or SD cards are important features for tablets or that that the media features on Android tablets are better than those on the Ipad. That's not me just sayin': that's the tablet buying public.
To put it bluntly, its the software and the ecosystem: the hardware and the specs are secondary. Frankly, even Stevie Wonder can see that now, although the techies are still insisting that SD cards are SOOO important.
Itunes gets a lot of stick from the tech crowd, but most think its better and more capable than the Android media player and is better integrated with the iTunes store. The iTunes store is a one stop shopping media solution that is absent from the Android platform . The App Store >>> Google Market.
Now Amazon did have its cloud player up first, but Apple has a way of providing not the first solution, but the best solution. We'll see what Apple does in October
