^ yeah as much as the gamer I was years ago, I only cared for specs back then. I cared for specs last year too.. I remember perfectly a year ago when i was arguing with people whether the milestone was worth 500$ or not. Milestone vs g1 or some shit.. Every little detailed mattered LOL. We had a oveclocked htc g1 and did speed tests and shit before and after mods lol.
Okay sounds like we had no life but that's the geek I used to be. I remember getting a iPhone 4 when it came out off craigslist for a killer deal of $550 bnib cause the guy wanted to keep his berry. I played around for a while and I was like "meh it's no different from my old ipod touch." then shortly after I sold it. After reading forums and the iPhone 4 thread I got pretty jealous and bought one just to fuck around in December because I got it for a steal too. Battery life was a huge upgrade for what the iphone is capable for and it didnt as much lag because of mods. Sure the specs cant compare to androids, droids are faster and cheaper. Notification system isnt shit, fully customizable and the widgets kick ass. Honestly im very bored of using the droid. Perhaps I need my entertainment?

I don't think I can live without my games and stuff from iOS from now on lol. Although I'm about to get a desire as a phone I'm still gonna use an iPod touch 4. As for other tablets no matter how cheap they are and how fast they are they will all be pretty similar imo. iPad is unique in its own way. I actually dont mind iTunes at all.. What better way is there to sync your songs? Drag and drop? LOL. I love the auto backup and syncing. My iPad had nothing in it and when I synced it to iTunes all my contacts from my phone was there. Email was set up for me and favorite playlists, custom playlist, browser bookmarks all neatly filed, I don't know what's with all the hate for it. Just takes time to get used to I guess. I doubt other net books tablets have a battery as long lasting as the iPad either.. At 11:55-12:02 I typed that post up there and now it's 12:31 and I've been playing fruit ninja online, music thru the speakers and the battery is at 98%.. If you are a consumer for entertainment, no other tablet or netbook can beat the ipad IMO.
