I don’t give a flip about either one of ‘em.

But from what I hear, the iPad having no USB port is a deal breaker.

Steve says you don’t need USB.
Steve says you don’t need an SD card slot.
Steve says you don’t need a camera.
Steve says you don’t need another OS.
Steve says you don’t need to multitask.

Please don’t ruin Steve’s hard work to deliver the Apple experience to you.

Is this slate still based on Windows 7? If so, remember to include viruses and malware that will come with simply using the product.

Does it have a tiny little physical keyboard too?

I think a tablet computer should support a stylus. What's a tablet without a stylus? And wires. Lots of wires. For peripherals and stuff. /s

The iPad does not run flash but I’ll buy one anyway. I’ll probably buy a HP Slate too. Why? Because I can:)

So basically it’s a tablet that runs winders? I’m not too overly fond of winders in general ( I run Linux on desk and laptop). But I can’t see how running windows, with the basic winders interface on a tablet as being all that great. And I can why you’d need to use a stylus.

LOL...from HP’s website, no less.

HP doesn’t even have Steve Jobs to throw a reality distortion field around prospective buyers!

At least we get to get out of the store and home before the reality distortion field begins to wear off...:)
