To own an idle iPad is a cardinal sin.
Well I do use mine once in a blue moon to check out a game that is not on Android. That is one part of the market Android seriously lack in. Games.
The reason for this is that developers would follow the money and from revenue by category breakdowns we can see where the focus lies. On iOS its Games and Entertainment, and on Android its Customization and Business.

I actually find my iPad more useful for business as I haven't found anything as good as iWorks for Honeycomb. The MS Office wannabees on Honeycomb all sux big time imo. Doing PowerPoint presentations from my iPad is a joy. Nothing on Honeycomb like that. I am actually struggling to get my 10.1 to be effective for business.

Keynote is worth every cent. Very little fixing needed after migration from PowerPoint. Very slick. I really need a solution as good as that for my 10.1. I do a lot of presentations.

Hmm, is there any reason why you use the GT-7500 so much on mybb? I almost never see you post from your iPad 2.
I don't know about the Powerpoint Presentations and if it is a big concern for you, it makes sense with going with the best in that regard. How people define "best" is probably up to how you use it.

I must admit I dont spend much time creating or editing Office documents on my tablet.
I normally Splashtop to my desktop and use Microsoft Office. Did that back on my iPad as well, before I got the Android as I did find it painful esp when using advance formula's
As for normal viewing I found the local Polaris office adequate.

Thats one of the reason I turn that crap off, if people seen how many posts I made from a iOS devices in Android section they would go nuts.... same for the iOS comments from my Android devices
I use what is at hand most of the time... like when my Android tablet is pluged into my TV its easier to just grab the iPad...

That is a valid reason, as I am sure Bevonk has one too. Maybe he likes the myBB app beter on his android. From what I read about his post it seems like he uses his iPad more for work and Tab for play. If that is the case, he probably would be dissappointed.
The P7500 works better for me to post here because I love the thumb keyboard on it. Also easier to use the tumb keyboard in meetings (can sit back and type without anyone seeing what I'm actually doing ). iOS 5 will have a similar keyboard implementation.
For internet access the P7500 is better (mostly what I use the P7500 for). It is thin and light and with such an awesome screen it works great in this role. The thumb keyboard on top of this really works well for places like MyBB.
For apps and light content creation I use the iPad. I have invested a lot of money in iOS apps already so I can do a lot on the iPad already. For me to ditch the iPad I need some key app solutions of the same quality as what I have on my iPad already. iWorks is one. I also love apps like Penultimate, ThinkBook and use them a lot. Then when it comes to games there is at present no comparison for me. I'm also not aware of an app of the same quality as Garageband on Honeycomb (nope, I don't play but the kids do). There's also some really good educational apps for the kids ... things like Xperica HD. And then I love reading Wired Magazine, and they have nothing for Android yet. iMaverick is a good new newspaper that is also only on the iPad.
