| said by aaronwt:It only has a 7 inch display. The iPAD has a 9.7 inch display. How would this even compete with the iPAD. The screen is too small. The device competes in the Internet Media Tablet category of device. A 5-7" device is much easier to hold with ONE HAND which makes them less portable. When the devices are bigger you'll need an extra hand. (Yes, chuckle as your minds enter the gutter brielfly).
Apple products aren't and shouldn't be the standard against which everything tech should be based upon. If that were the case, these IMT's wouldn't even have Linux & Android as embedded o/s and platform. Apple's big gateway to success is following tech trends from the basic mp3 player all the way to this & the iphone and captializing on them with guerilla marketing tactics to make them seem like the best things since sliced bread.
One day people will compare Apple's marketing to those gadgets millions buy from infomercials. Except Apple does it on the cheap with Wall St. backed clout. This mantra is you don't have to be the *BEST* in your category, you just have to have enough people BELIEVE you are, even if that's far from reality so you part with your cash. |
