Just timed my iPad 3; I get to stare at the apple for 49 seconds from full off. Never been impressed by the boot time of Apple's mobile devices.
Yeah, just that you hardly ever need to reboot the iPad, while Win 7 forces you to reboot ever so often, if that's any indication of Win 8. I've had my iPad 1 from the day it became available until I got the iPad 3 on launch date (is that about 2 years?) and rebooted it maybe 3 or 4 times during that time frame, with daily extensive use.
