[Galaxy Tab General] elnoxvie:
Well let me put my fair understanding on both devices.

IPAD ADV

---------

- Bigger Screen: More Space for applications, pleasant for the eye

- Brighter Screen

- Longer Battery Life

- Applications tailored just for IPAD

IPAD DISV

----------

- Heavy.. use on one hand for a long time is just not comfortable.

- Can't Make Call without Jail Breaking / Additional Support

- Bulky, It would mean that you have to carry a bag with you all the time.

- Most of the stuffs don't work in IPAD. e.q. Flash

This is critical for some reason and at least for now, most websites run flash: Videos or Games and it's extremely cumbersome to get the contents to be played on the IPAD. Tethering not working right out of the box (if i remember correctly)

- No support for widgets. why is this important? well, because it's a feature that enable us to glance through information easily or access certain function easily. Plus, it's beautiful and pleasing. Imagine, you want to check your Data Usage, all you have to do is open your screen and you know straight how many have you used instead of opening the program and do a check button again. >.<!!

SGT ADV

--------

- Connectivity: you can make call, browsing using wifi or 3G.

- Light in size and pocket-able on most jeans or clothing.

- All in One? compared to IPAD, you will need an extra pair of device as a phone but with tab, you have it all.

- Device capable for honey comb & ginger bread.

- As android is open source, it's open to development and customization. This would mean that if samsung doesn't make SGT good enough for people, a team or someone can make that customization to provide more battery life, better interface etc.

SGT DISADV

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

- Built on TFT technology.. which the screen is slightly distorted on certain angle.

- Compared to IPAD, the battery life sucks. However,

you get widgets, connectivity and multi tasking done right and still it's enough to be used as a daily phone / tablet.

- Not many application tailored for SGTab yet and my feeling about this is the future is a bit unknown .. With so many screen resolutions out. 7inch 8.9inch 10 inch.. it's just making it hard for developer to tailor the application but all in all, the android tablet coming to the market is definite so it's possible that the tailored applications will be growing steadily.

My Summary:

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

While ipad offers better battery life, applications, screen and performance. It does have certain disadvantages such as lack of flash support, customization, calls and it's bulky. And for some who wish to have portability and entertainment on the GO, Tab is definitely superior than IPAD in many ways. However, taking apps into consideration, the Apps in IPAD is amazing simply because they are tailored. Android is still evolving. We will see more applications tailored for Android tablet size become available in the near future. Having said that i would say all in all, the pro and cons between these two devices is 50:50 and at the end of the day, it's up to your preference whether you want a device with good apps support but lack portability or you want one with all in and portable.
