If money's no object, I agree that the iPad Air is arguably the best tablet on the market today. However, if you're willing to justify the higher price by thinking you'll use it for several years, I disagree.
As rapidly as tablet design and technology are advancing, I can't imagine that I would be satisfied with a three or four year old tablet today and expect this will be the case going forward.
For me, cost is an important consideration and I expect to upgrade whenever new features and technology justify doing so. My first tablet was a 1st generation iPad purchased in late 2010 but it was too heavy and clunky to enjoy so I replaced it with an original Kindle Fire October 2011. I sold my Fire and bought a Nexus 7 when it came out a few months later. When Barnes and Noble dropped the price for the 9" HD+ and added Google Play access earlier this year, I gave my N7 to my wife and got one. I love the larger screen and HD resolution but doubt my love affair will last more than a year or so and I'll want a newer, better model.
