I got a iPad after I got the Droid X to take advantage of the mobile hotspot feature, and I really like my iPad. I new the Samsung Tab was coming out and I knew the second generation iPad was coming out in over half a year, but I have to admit, the iPad is pretty sweet. I'm a news junkie and yes, the DX could do everything the iPad does, but there are apps the DX does better, and there are apps the iPad does better. I feel pretty fortunate to have both. Now, when it comes down to a phone, Droid FTW, hands down. Even if Apple released an iPhone for Verizon next year, I'm hooked on the functionality of Droid.
