Im more of a gadget guy than stock. Bone is the guy for stock.

Depends on you lor. Its a bit cheaper than what you can get directly from Apple Store.
I think most people who chase gadget always buy the newest one instead of drooling over the newer version for the sake of RM200.

I usually wait for Dec-CNY period. Many companies lucky draw and their workers post iPad for sale. Got one RM300 off retail price last time for brand new iPad4 that just launched.

The biggest difference between Apple and Samsung is that the former dont reduce price until the next gen is out while Samsung keep cutting price to attract more buyers as technology advances. Apple stand on pricing is what help maintain resale value.

Android tablet was hampered by volume problem, which is why they are expensive, but not necessary perform better. NVIDIA introduction of Tegra 2 & 3 didn't help either with its sub par performance.

Personally I think consumers have to educate themselves on the different offering on the market, instead of blaming manufacturers for misleading them. Most would focus on their advantages rather than pointing out their weaknesses compared to their competitors.

Personally, I still couldn't recommend Android tablet because of the lack of standard when it comes to app compatibility. A lot were horribly done or simply not supported when you are running on different SoC.

For me, there is no perfect tablet. That's why I have Android, iOS and Windows 8.1 tablets.

As for android, I wouldn't bat an eye on other brand other than nexus line.

I'm currently waiting for the next gen ipad mini.

Currently using iPad 2, this is a massive upgrade for me.
