honestly... beyond specific OS fanboyism... I don't see why anyone would choose any other 10" (or 7" for Nexus7) over the Nexus 10. Its by far the better choice and FAR less $$.

Sums things up nicely.

It's not fanboyism. The iOS environment suits my needs and I'm invested in it. To get me to switch back to Android, it would require several leaps forward in both usability and platform stability. Both are good now but they're not any better (and in some cases worse) than iOS. The iPad still has a rather sizeable advantage in apps, as well (though that gap is obviously closing).

$100 doesn't matter to me (the price difference between the Nexus 10 and the iPad 4). The two are similarly specced enough where it's just trolling to start touting one over the other (Nexus has screen advantage, we'll see how each benchmarks but I imagine they'll be very close to one another).

All in all, the Nexus 10 is a hell of an impressive machine but as an iPad owner, i don't see the point in switching. I already have well over $100 in iOS apps. Why would I lose that just to save $100 on hardware on a platform that I don't really care for?
