Especially now since the iPad is out, a bunch of Android tablets are coming out, thinner tablet PCs like the HP slate etc.
Just silly to buy anything right now IMO vs waiting 6-12 months for these to roll out and find something that's closer to what I need/want.
But yes, some Apple kool-aid as the iPad is fantastic in terms of form factor, speed, battery life etc., just a bit small and needs a real file management system. So the bar is set pretty high, and I may just end up with an iPad if the Android and other tablets don't come close to matching it in those areas. |
You giving too much credit to IPad it's as bulky because of it's ginormous bezel as 12" tablet pc I have, and weigh just a few ounces less, I would imagine 12" you waiting for will weight the same and will be even more unweildy if it comes from apple with same bezel. I played with IPad in BestBuy and thing was so heavy I got tired after 2 minutes of holding it with one hand.
Have to acknowledge though, if you are afraid of heat - old tablets are not for you
