 True. And when comparing two similar systems, it matters greatly. The iPad 1 had 256 MB of RAM. The iPad 2 doubled that and it made a huge difference performance wise. Nowadays no one is going to buy an ipad 1 unless they're willing to sacrifice improved performance to save some extra money. Why would it be any different with Android systems? More RAM is always better. I pay attention to RAM in an Android device when I'm comparing against other Androids. I pay attention to RAM in Ipad when I'm thinking about upgrading.
