Ipad or galaxy tab?

[Dedworth]

BAD APPLE

SUMSUNG cannot escape the opprobrium heaped upon it for purloining Apple patents.

But the over the top reaction of Apple to its victory over a rival is typical of a monopolist in action.

It seeks to use every weapon it can to beat up on rivals so as to eliminate competition.

iTunes has vacuumed up 70% of the paid for online music market, newspapers must pay heavily to put content on the iPad and now it is seeking to boot Samsung and the Android off its patch.
How Pleasant.

I haven't progressed from my Sony Walkman yet...always meant to get one of those that took CDs. Just never seemed to get round to it.

Glad I opened it for a look. I need to check those batteries...they must have been in there 10 years.

I bought this little fellow in Hong Kong in 1995:

Like life ...it was all very comfortable and simplistic in those days...trouble was, some didn't appreciate it.

Haha...just stuck those batteries in and she fired up perfectly.

It has a mains facility too. Groovy eh.

Kept me sane when I was working shifts down the tunnel in Hong Kong.

Lovely, definitely a blast from the past
We sure have got it tough now

Yeah, back in the late 90s I used to buy Computer Active magazine to keep up with everything, put together my own PCs etc, understood simple programming, but can't be bothered now that things are advancing by the minute. Just gives me a bloody headache.
Now I get things as and when REALLY needed.

It depends what you want to do on the device. If you want it to connect to the internet via 3G then you need a 7"/10" Samsung Galaxy as the cheaper models have only wifi.

The new Samsung Note II comes out next month which has a 5.5" display, that will have a quad core.

Thank you for the abusive private message lastlid yesterday at 0820 hrs...never in all my 5 years on this forum have I received a message like that

All the more sad when coming from a self proclaimed teacher.

You are now honoured to be the first and only member to be on my ignore list.

Btw...you shouldn't take things so personally..if that's your nature you think again about being so vocal on a forum...have a happy life

[grahamw48]

oooops.

[gWaPito]

oooops.

Didn't realize he was such a sensitive soul...perhaps his feminine side making an appearance...who knows....what I do know is, I dont dwell all day on whats being said on here....like you said, its only banter...most of the time good natured and good fun.

In reply to your final post here on Monday Graham...yes, other things take priority in life...what was important yesterday could well be put in the nonsensical bin the following...such is the rich tapestry of life

[grahamw48]

This time I will keep my big gob shut.

I'd certainly entertain a Samsung and the Galaxy Tab 2 can be had for about £230 after the, cash back offer at the moment.

That's almost half the iPad price and well worth it in my opinion.

Good luck
