Here's the question.....
If you had my money, what tablet would you buy? I am looking at the Ipad as my #1 contender, but it is a big deal that it doesn't play Flash? And WTF is Flash? And do I need it?
I am basically just looking for a device for the home and while vacationing that we can look at emails and surf the net.
Love to hear from ya.
Me.
Okay, I'm no geek - but my sister has the i-pad and it is becoming a big deal that it has no Flash - a lot of functionality of most websites uses it ... so she finds that she is on her PC for most of her surfing.
FWIW I've had an excellent experience so far with my Samsung Galaxy S2 4G LTE phone (Android OS) and I've heard similarly good things about the Samsung Galaxy Tablet.
Given what's happening with RIM these days I was loathe to go with Blackberry ... the i-pad has no Flash ... so for me that left Android as the only real option for OS ... there's a good selection of tabs that use Android - my advice, again FWIW, is consider the OS you want first - then look at the hardware.
