It's amazing how much s**t the fanbois eat from Apple. The only 'new' thing on the 'new' iPAD is the screen, everything else has been done by someone else before. LTE tabs exist and at price points far lower than Apples $629 for 16GB, faster processors done, bluetooth 4 done, upping the camera to 5mp done and the list goes on. So the best they can come up with in a year is a better screen and everyone goes oooooh. It's like adding an 'S' to the iPhone4 and saying 'Talk to Siri, it talks back'. Woop di doo. The marketing hype surrounding Apple is amazing, Apple says the A5x, a dual core processor, with a quad core graphics chip is faster than the Nvidia Tegra 3 quad core and immediately it's 5X faster. No evidence of this, no tests, no benchmarking, but because Apple says it, it's a fact. The fanbois cannot see the wood for the trees. As for price points, I am sure Apple could reduce the prices of their products. Just look at the almost $100 billion dollars they have in the bank for the proof that they're ripping their customers off. They have a slave labour force in China where they pay nothing to have those beautiful screens and devices made and all the fanbois see is their shiny little iPads and the words 'I must have at all costs' and 'Where do I get one'. At least I'm not caught up in that and have the ability to make sane choices about what I want. As for the Cloud..... the closure of MegaUpload should make people wary of the cloud. Imagine if this happened to Apple and looking at some of the legislation currently waiting for approval in the US, it could. My data, my files and my personal information should be under my control, not some corporate who sees me a cash cow.
I dislike iOS, and own an Android phone for this reason. Although I do love and cherish my MBP, the iOSification of OS X is causing me much concern.
