[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gogol:
I own an iPad2 for about half a year.

And I am an Android user, my phone is HTC Desire, Nexus S, and pre-ordered Galaxy Nexus.

First of all, please excuse my english language :)

Previously, I was waiting a good decent Android tablet, good hardware profile, good battery life, screen is nice, etc.

My eyes was on Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, but Honeycomb 3.0 at that time really put me off with issues like "slow text input on web page". And the fact that it came very late in Europe (even barred in Germany!).

ASUS Transformer 1 just does not cut it, I don't like the hardware profile, thick and heavier than GTab 10.1. Sure, I use iPad2 as reference because as Android user, I always want a device that is better (or on par) than fruit device!

I could wait and wait, but nevertheless my wife asked me a tablet and I thought iPad2 will suit her (as non power user).

After half a year using this iPad2, here are some things that I don't like:

1. The virtual keyboard.

Why on earth, Apple created virtual keyboard like that? No lower case indication, no easy way to output numeric chars (on Android, I can long press), and way too much click to output []+ for example (I hate this when I create a post in XDA starting with "[Q]" ... or typing "Google+"). Really, I wish I can change the keyboard. Alas, I cant.

With Android, you can change it the way you want. There are many good virtual keyboard apps!

2. Non-unified file system

All right, in iOS, there is no unified file system. Each app has its own storage space. That's make a bit difficult to manage files. Granted, I always want to use my device as storage for my files. There is nothing wrong with it, right?

If I got a file attachment in iOS, how do I download it? How can I access that file from other apps?

3. Sharing thing

On Android, if I have something, like a file, an app, or anything, I can easily share it with other users via intuitive user interface, using WhatsApp, Facebook, Google+, email, what not.

I simply cannot do this with iOS. You can say, this is not a big deal, but that's disadvantage.

Right now, I always go back to my Nexus S to share things!

4. Boring home screen

Yeah, this is obvious. There is nothing you can do with iOS home screen. Icons icons and loads of icons. I want "direct information" right in the home screen, like weather, news, system status, etc. You cannot have that, you must access each app manually to get that information. With Android, you can have widget, simple.

------------

So, now, with the Prime, I think I found the right tablet for me :) I still hate Honeycomb, but it will get ICS.

The hardware profile is much better than the iPad2, with SD card slot, HDMI, and decent keyboard dock. While still maintaining thinner and lighter profile.

Why shouldn't I get one?

People complaint about "smoothness" and "fluidity" of the scrolling / home screen. Yes, most probably iOS is better on this, but ICS is not that bad! I don't think you will experience choppy and laggy user interface or such. I will opt for all those advantages on Android rather than just smoothness.

Apps, apps and apps. Yeah, this is personal. So far, I am satisfied with all apps that I can get from Android. ... Of course, except Facebook app! But, I think I can use the web browser :)

Hope this helps
