Q. Still get called the best tablet because it has a good screen and metal back?
And then when the reviewer mentions the things that the Ipad doesn't have he just says, you need those things anyway, or that they are over hyped!
Because of that I just went by the spec sheets and didn't get an Ipad. The reviews make no sense.

A. That is correct. Pick out an Android tablet with the same price tag and you will get a tablet that is 2 to 3 times as powerful in terms of specs. But hey, people just look so darn cool with an iPad so why not get one?
Should I buy an android phone now or wait for a new release?
Q. I am seeking an android phone for verizon, but am aware that new software will be coming out soon which may require new hardware... Is it worth waiting a few months for new models to come out or are there any models worth buying right now?
A. Personally, I'd wait. The new software you are referring to is Android 2.3, codenamed Gingerbread. It is going to be geared towards the top-of-the-line smart phones and tablets.
The minimum hardware requirements for 2.3 devices will be a 1GHZ CPU, 512MB of RAM, and a 3.5� or higher display. Motorola announced back in July that they were going to be releasing a powerful 2GHZ smart phone late in 2010 (still nothing yet, and no carrier specified, although Verizon is a fair bet). I'm personally excited to see what other manufacturers like Samsung will have to show in 2011.
Another big reason to wait is because of the launch of Verizon's LTE ('4G') network, a supposed 10x speed increase over the current 3G. Currently, there are no LTE-capable phones. Anything you get now will lock you into 3G.

whats the difference between a ipad and other tablets?
Q. Oky, I'm totally confused. What is the difference between an apple ipad & other tablets. Why are the ipad's so much more expensive & are there applications for autistic children available with other tablets as well? Also, why not a touchscreen laptop? What's the big difference there?
A. Snobs with too much money and too few brain cells will go for the iPad; sensible people choose Android.
A lap top is typically bigger, less portable but more powerful for the same amount of money.

What is the best tablet on the market?
Q. With the future going digital and things like cd's, USB drives, flash players, etc becoming a thing of the past I figure it is time to join the party of the future. What do you consider the best tablet on the market?
I do not care if you don't share my feelings about where we are heading in technology but the evidence is right in front of us. Spare me you BS about how tablets etc all suck and just give me the intel I want?

A. Short answer is there are several very good options, and it's a matter of preference.
If Apple keynotes are to be believed, iPads make up the vast majority of tablet web traffic (ostensibly because they are the best). And they are quite good and solid (new iPad recently came out too).
There is a new Nexus 10 that I don't know much about but it's probably at the top of the Android tablet list. A few months ago the Transformer Prime was the best.
And then there's the new Microsoft Surface with Windows RT, though it's a bit thicker and heaver than its competition. At this point there are fewer Windows RT apps out there, though it does offer more options than Android and iOS in terms of multitasking, and in a few months there will be plenty of Windows RT apps. You can also get a cover that has a keyboard to type with if screen-typing isn't your thing.
Nexus 7 and new iPad mini are probably the two 7'" tablets to consider for the more mobile. Though without a 10" screen you can't type like you do on a full-sized keyboard.
