Verizon and the iPAD

[DroidDev]

So I was on a call today with Verizon Wireless at the end of the call the lady went into a 9 minutes spill about how they have the amazing iPad and why I should get one.

I was on the call yesterday with Verizon Wireless and the guy went into a 5 minutes spill about how amazing it is they have the iPad now and why I should get one.

I was on the phone with Verizon Wireless last week and at the end of the call the rep wanted me to know that I should pay to get the iPad and that I would love it. Telling me all about how they got it and what all their pricing points are for it.

I just thought this was funny. Anyways....

To stay on forum topic...I love my Droid X. Cant wait for 2.3.

The longer i have to wait for a good android 10in wifi tablet the better the ipad looks

Id rather have the ipad. And ill get the iphone too on vzw when its released. I like my X, but I loved my iphone.

I'm personally more found of the android platform and the entire android world. If I ever got a tablet, I'd just wait for something that android offered.

Dont understand the point of tablets. Id rather have a laptop that is twice as fast and costs half as much

Point of tablet's are press power, press browser and off you go.

Now.. with a laptop.. turn on laptop, wait 1-2 minutes to be at the desktop, open IE and wait for it to load.. then browse.

Tablet's offer instant DOING and less WAITING.

Since I've gotten my Streak, I rarely turn on my laptop at home.. I use my Dell Streak for everything.. from browsing ESPN, to ordering pizza..etc

Yeah I use my droid X for quickie look ups. My ASUS ROG laptop boots to my Win7 desktop on 28 seconds. It boots to my RHEL4 desktop in 15 secs.

But I want a tablet for ease of use. No matter how fast my laptop is it is still bulkier then a tablet (unless you get a MacBook Air). My laptop also will melt your skin off if you put it on your lap. The GPU and CPU in that thing are beasts and the exhaust if HOT. However with a tablet you just pick it up, hit the browser and boom there you go..with not leg melting heat. When you can play COD on a true tablet (not a tablet pc) ill jump all over it. lol

I understand Sniffs point about being able to quickly look something up, but that is exactly what my Droid X will already do.

Once BIOS is finally set out to pasture laptops will start up a lot quicker (in seconds).

What kind of issues are you having if you have to call Verizon 3 times in a week?

Sniff got it right. I love my iPad and my Streak. They both get it more usage than my laptop since I got them.

Did you hear about a Android Tablet a Youtuber called "Ashens" reviewed? I think it was 2.1 and called "HaiPad"....Or something, a little over 100 bucks in price
