Q. I need help deciding. I know apple's ipad is the king of tablets however android has alot more flexibility with how much you can modify your tablet to how you want it. But I am having a hard time deciding, I am leaning towards the Samsung Galaxy right now. My main thing I am concened about is that the tablet must have a front facing camera with the ability to chat w/Skype.
Really appreciate the answers so far guys thanks!

A. Definately the Motorola XOOM by far my current favorite, saving up to get mine now and have been doing a ton of research, i dont like the ipad because it doesnt have an operating system and im tried of having to buy apps to run anything. The xoom is way cool will be great for skype and runs the android 3.0 honeycomb unlike some of the other devices that still use 2.2. overall and for the price its gotta be the xoom, attaching a review i just googled so you can look at more details cause im lazy and dont wanna type them all out... good luck
What is the best brand of tablet with the most features and biggest screen size?
Q. I am not a fan of the ipad but am interested to see what people think is the best tablet on the market NOT including the ipad (which i think is priced too high and popular due to consumer hype.) I am in the market for one but got overwhelmed when I went to the store. What tablet has the best features, memory, screen size etc. At the store I played with the samsung tablet and blackberry but I don't know much about either. thanks
A. Apple achieves high levels of fit and finish on their products, but, yes, they're relatively expensive. It sounds like you'd prefer the more open approach of Android tablets, which also happen to have much better cameras than the iPad. That's certainly fine. Here are some other considerations...
If cellular service is important, you may want to consider which tablet your favorite carrier supports:
Verizon:Galaxy Tab 10.1, iPad 2, Xoom, and Galaxy Tab
T-Mobile:G-Slate, Streak 7, and Galaxy Tab
Sprint:PlayBook and Galaxy Tab
AT&T:iPad 2 and Galaxy Tab
None:Eee Slate, Slate 500, TouchPad, Thrive, Eee Pad TF101, Iconia Tab A500, Archos 101, Archos 70, and NOOK Color
For overall value, the ASUS Eee Transformer (TF101) has surprisingly good specs for under $400: Android 3.1, 10.1 inch 1280x800 IPS (like iPad, but bigger and higher resolution) display, up to 9 hours of battery life (16 hours if optional dock added), optional ability to dock with keyboard, 1 GHz Tegra 250 ARM CPU with 1 GB RAM, good array of ports (mini HDMI, SD, micro SD), preloaded Polaris Office 3.0 for editing documents (.doc), spreadsheets (.xls) and presentation (.ppt) files. Note, though, no 3G (however people report success in tethering it to smart phones).
If Windows OS compatibility or a digitizer pen is important to you, go for the ASUS Eee Slate or HP Slate 500. The biggest differences between those are that the ASUS has a better display (12.1 inch AFFS 1280x800) than the HP (8.9 inch TFT 1024x600) but is larger, heavier and more expensive.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the thinnest (0.336 inches) and lightest (1.25 lbs) the big-screen (greater than 9 inch) tablets.
If high-end video recording is important to you, consider the LG G-Slate or BlackBerry PlayBook, both of which can record at 1080p. The still cameras on those devices are pretty good too: G-Slate has Dual 5 MP rear cameras and a 2MP front camera; PlayBook has 5MP front and 3MP rear cameras.
Motorola Xoom: Heavier and thicker than both the iPad or Galaxy Tab, the Xoom's advantage is that it has HDMI out and micro USB ports. It also has a 5MP rear camera compared to Tab's 3MP and iPad's lousy 0.7MP.

what is the difference in the android operating systems?
Q. im looking to buy an android tablet and ive looked at several ones but im not understanding what the difference is in say the honeycomb operating System or the froyo one? please help before i buy one!!
A. I've used two Android tablets, one with Honeycomb 3.0 and the other with 3.1, and there is very little difference between them. I understand there are 3.2 ones available now, and soon 4.0 will be released.
Honeycomb was designed specifically for tablets: it takes advantage of the larger real estate on the screen. Froyo tablets seem a little bit "cramped", since Froyo was designed for phones and their limited screen sizes.

What's the best tablet pc that is cheap and yet powerful?
Q. Also something that supports flash. Oh yeah and which should I get, 7 inch tablet or 10 inch? I personally like the portability of the 7 inch tablets but I like the bigger screen size personally but not to big.
Is there a lot of pinch to zoom in the 7 inch tablets?
Doesn't the samsung galaxy tab needs a 2 year contract? I'm not really into contracts. However the galaxy tab does look interesting.

A. There are no cheap, powerful and tablet pcs. You can choose any two, but not all three at the same time.
Well, flash? That removes the ipads. Good riddance, but that's another story. What you're left with, is currently either something that runs W7 home premium or Android 2.3 or 3.0. I'd go for Android, which leaves... hmm... how about the Acer Iconia Tab A500 10"?
