QUOTE(jackyyong @ Jan 10 2011, 01:47 PM) Of the above, facebook game is not possible, since iPad does not support flash. Editing from other person's document via pendrive is tough, you will need to use a lot of workarounds, like use a camera connection kit, put in cloud, send via email, etc. Otherwise, the rest works beautifully. erm....  ..so whiche tablet is more suitable for my case?

QUOTE(calmshot @ Jan 14 2011, 10:08 PM) Better go for galaxy tab, vewsonic viewpad android version is just the same as csl spice mi700. The spec is not that good... The best current alternative tablet is galaxy tab. If u can live without facebook game and able to change ur life to use cloud storage rather than usb thumbdrive or sd card, ipad is the way to go. erm... galaxy tab is abit expensive to me... Facebook game is not the "must" to me, surfing internet and viewing document from my friend will b more important, because sometimes when i meet my friend outside, i can take n view a file from my friend ( although this is not alywas happen).. so if it can read from pendrive will be a great thing...hehe
