Didn't they have to pull their advertising and get their wrists slapped about this recently? I thought that related to the speed they showed and missing out stages in the process. If teh UK don;t adopt the US standard is that Apples fault. Whichy devices wiork with the UK 4G, I saw them testing it with a macbook think it was the gadget show.

At the time the iPad "3" was introduced with 4G, it supported 700MHz and 2100MHz, at that point EE hadn't announced their 1800MHz LTE and the auction for 800MHz and 2600MHz won't be happening for a few months yet, so they'll have to introduce a new model to support LTE in the UK. |

The great thing in, the CHOICE (something Apple owners don't have) Fragmentation is a problem for mobile gaming though, if you want something better than Angry Birds or Cut the rope Apps are frequently written to the lowest common denominator - and why wouldn't you - to maximise appeal/sales. Really, that's utter bull**** (again started by Jobs). Android is no more fragmented than iOS. Infact in many ways, Android is better, Google go to great lengths to ensure backwards compatibility libraries to enable older OS versions to use the latest Android SDK features. Android is based on the UNIX operating system. One of the finest and most stable OS's ever made. So is Mac OS X and iOS both bof which have been around longer than andriod. I know that. Many here are putting across that Android, with over 400 million uses, was some form of crap Microsoft type of product. It is not. The Nexus 7 by far is the best tablet around in price/performance/quality/portability. It only can use Wi-Fi, and not the cellular wireless system, which many regard as a downer, but most do not as a smart phone can give them what they want on the move. The Nexus 7 can also be thethered to a Smart phone so not much of a problem really. Apple's I-pad is 10", not 7". The i-pad competes with mainly laptops. Many found it too big to carry about and went for the smaller Samsung models. Apple realise this and are making a 7" model. |

It's just a IPS panel with a specific pixel density (264 Pixels/Inch to be exact) that many other tablets have already exceeded (for example the Samsung Galaxy Note II) A big part of my usage of the iPad is web browsing and the display of web pages is just so much better that any of the Android tablets I've tried. I'm not even going to get into the debate about how poor the Android browser is (though Chrome is a little better) The Nexus 7 has Chrome as standard. Although Ansus make the Nexus 7, its own brand tablet is a poorer product than the Nexus 7. Yes there are major advantages in Android over Ios/Apple, but it depends what you want to do with your device and and the moment the those advantages are being outweighed by the Apple device simply doing what I need it to do, better. The Nexus 7 has upped the yardstick. |

We are also seeing no end of problems with jelly bean... Like what? Around 60-70% of our mobile users are on iOS devices, around 25Â% on android. Our support load is by far the opposite - more like 85-90% android problems and 10% iOS. What are the most common problems? Also beware the life of android (this might be more relevant for phones than tablets admittedly). There aren't many Android devices that will still be upgradable to the latest build 18 months into a 24 month contract. Not always a problem, but annoying. Galaxy S2 will be upgradeable to Jelly Bean. The biggest issue with any tablet is to buy a decent one, and that generally means an iPad priced one. But the Nexus 7 is half the price and less, depending on model, and competes directly with the i-Pad on quality, functionality, etc. The cheaper ones are frustrating. Android is an open OS so many makers can use it make products from cheap and nasty to high quality. Apple, a great company, are vertically integrated in hardware and software. The company near went under at one point as it would not licence it technology to others and PC's and appalling Windows swept the market. They made some niche products and survived. The i-phone catapulted them to stardom. Apple was able to claw themselves back because of the flakeiness of Windows, offer an expensive but stable and reliable product which many appreciated. But the opposition now is UNIX based android, not the appalling Windows. Android is a stable well thought out OS which improves by the month and is and OPEN OS used by many makers, which does drive down prices. To imply that only Apple make quality, as was the case vs. Windows, is gross ignorance of the current Smart Phone/tablet market. Android is even to be ported to powerful laptops - I hope with the switchable option of keyboard or touch screen. I hate laptop's flat condensed keyboards. So, you can have an android Smart Phone, tablet and home laptop, with the same look and feel, running similar or the same apps and all seamlessly compatible. It is only time that a powerful Android PC will have a detachable screen that can be touch or keyboard run. |

The biggest issue with any tablet is to buy a decent one, and that generally means an iPad priced one. The cheaper ones are frustrating. It's just that Apple don't bother with the cheaper end of the market - all of their tablets (and I guess, all of their products really) are well into the premium end. They come with a premium price tag as well! (except maybe the ultrabook market - hard to find much comparable with a macbook air - we've been trying!) Darren Darren Sure it's got no 3G (but then that's what mobile tethering and wifi hotspots are for), and no rear facing camera that makes you look a dickhead when you take pictures with it. But it's got everything else the iPad has (GPS etc) and more besides (NFC for example) -- Using Opera's revolutionary email client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ This is the issue I always come across: I've been using Apple for years (currently an iMac, a Macbook Pro and an iPhone) but every few years when I change I look at the alternatives as everyone says Apple is too expensive. Trouble is, by the time you have factored in the features and the quality of build, together with the quality of service (those few problems I have encountered over the years have been dealt with efficiently under warranties by Apple), you quickly find the competition is no cheaper. I don't find that the Apple lock in restricts me from doing anything. It does have the advantage that devices work well together and don't get virus-ridden when you go near the interweb (although I think that's more about it being a minority system as any epidemiologist would know). There has always been a bit of an anti-Apple thing amongst our IT support people at work but one of them said to me a while ago that this was more about them being concerned that they wouldn't be needed as much if everyone used Apple than any real problems with the platform. The one thing I don't understand though, is why people get so worked up about all this: If people want one device over another, well let them buy it. If it does what they want, whatever their criteria (which may include appearance etc), then fine. As we know, whatever you buy today will be obsolete in a year or two, except of course that it will still do whatever it does today, just not the new things. |

Why this is a matter of religious fervour for some people is completely beyond me, but the arguments put forward on both sides rarely bear up to objective examination and even those that do stand up often fail to take account of differing needs. Some people buy Apple because it's cool. Others buy it because it's quality kit that just works and they have something they need it for. Other people buy a box of bits and pieces and put it together with some weird and wonderful OS because they like playing with things and don't have anything important they need to rely on it for. Most people buy what looks the best deal at the time. All of them are right, in their own terms. If there was a single solution that was perfect for everyone, there would be no market, just like for every other device, cars, tools, houses etc etc. The OP here was asking about storage and whether it's an issue, not what brand to buy. Why? Because a higher authority (i.e. the family) had already decided that only an iPad would do the job. It doesn't matter whether that decision is rationally the best because a) nobody's asking that question and b) it's already been made. Debate over on that front, I'm afraid. |
