i used to have an iPad mini (original, 1st gen), and i gave it to my parents once i bought my Android tablets.
since my smartphones are android based, it made more sense to me to have everything android. plus, i HATE LOATHE DESPISE apple's fascination of proprietary connectors.
admittedly, i threw away all of my book / app purchases from apple since none of that transfers to my android. i think it was around $120 for all that stuff. it's still in my account but effectively useless to me.
i prefer my android tablets for many other reasons, but i do have to admit that as far as user interface speed & snappy-ness, the apple was better. not by a lot, but a bit better.
the androids are also quite a bit more affordable. apple stuff is overpriced (as far as i'm concerned) since it has many limitations and is kinda "closed" and proprietary. but hey, at least if you own apple you can be one of cool kids. cuz all the cool kids, they seem to fit it. I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids.
