Whether its windows 7, android or iOS...I am still confused what this things are for.

On the go? Iphone, Win 7 phone or Android phone are more than capable of giving you excellent mobile surfing or media capabilities.

At home? Laptops or desktops are much more capable devices for pretty much any task.

 


If I had one i'd use it as a more versatile kindle.

Which is why i wouldn't buy one... way to expensive for that.

I upgraded to Windows phone 7 last week (from Nokia e71 which served me great)...I figure Iphone and Android experience is on the same level, if not better than this WM phone. Hence I ask again...why does anyone on the go need an Ipad? I honestly can do almost anything on the go and do it well with this WM7 phone. Email, browsing, reading, taking pictures, multimedia...you name it. 

Yeah the screen of the Ipad is bigger but these new phones come with 4 inch OLED screens these days. Combined with a zoom feature...It should be sufficient for everyone.

The only group which I could understand would use ipads are college students...as they can carry them in their bag and use them to take notes on. But at 499? Id have to think twice if I were a student at that price...
