I wonder how they're planning on getting around Apple's requirement that subscription services available through an app have the option to use In App Purchase.
No, but when they saw that tsunamis were in the news they decided to piggyback on that publicity and make a press release. Also, a troll is someone who says something that they know is wrong in order to make people upset, not someone you disagree with.
Obviously you haven't. But unless you're only interested in using a computer at a desk it's a factor. The point is they're easier to use in general, and that's why people are buying them.
People don't buy tablets to save money or get more features. They buy them because they are easier and more convenient to use then computers or laptops and they meet most users computer needs. They can be used to surf the internet, check email, and write documents.
There seems to be some kind of miscommunication. In my previous post I said a tablet can't do anything a net book can't do. So why are you asking me for features? Maybe you're asking what makes a tablet easier to use then a computer or laptop. So here are some of those reasons in no particular order:
1. They are smaller and lighter than most net books.
2. They can be used in more positions than a laptop, for example it is easy to use one when standing up or sitting on a couch.
3. They have a multitouch interface, which is more intuitive than a traditional mouse and keyboard interface.
4. They have an application based interface, which is easier to navigate and maintain than the file based interfaces of most computers.
5. They have a much better battery life then most laptops or net books.
They are trying to capitalize on a disaster that probably killed tens of thousands of people in order to get media attention for their questionable theories.
There is no specific feature a Tablet has that a computer doesn't. A tablet does most of the things a computer can do, but it's easier and more convenient to use.
Safari based browsers have the same restriction. But what's the point of restricting downloaded browsers to 17+ when anyone can look at porn using Safari? How does that protect 'the children'?
Syncing data between devices is something the cloud would really be useful for. You could write a document in a word processor and have that document automatically available to all the devices that use the same Cloud account. That would allow you to start a document on your phone, then finish it when you get to your computer without manually syncing anything.
I had a 3G with the same performance issues when I upgraded the OS. I looked online for solutions and they suggested turning off the phone search feature. After doing that it was as fast as it had been before the upgrade.
Using a credit or debit card actually costs a similar amount of money. The cost is just hidden from you because the vendor normally pays the fee. Running a money distribution system costs money. Either you are paying for it directly or they are finding ways to make you pay for it indirectly.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say. The post you replied to said that taxing companies based on security holes would bankrupt Microsoft. Your reply said you thought the guy Apple hired had something to do with stealth plane secrets. I don't see how those two statements are related.
According to your link the Chinese got that technology by reverse engineering a plane that had been shot down. What does that have to do with computer security?
Apple said the iPhone isn't the only phone on the market with signal problems when held a certain way, which is true. They never said all phones have the exact same problem.
In the first example the TweetDeck CEO said that developing their product for Android wasn't a nightmare. Of coarse Steve Jobs never said it was. He cited a report by TweetDeck about how manny different versions of Android their software was tested on.
I don't think apple ever denied that holding the iPhone 4 a certain way could harm reception.

To me this says more about the companies that aren't on the list than it does about Microsoft,

If 256 MB is sufficient for the original iPad then 512 is ample for the iPad 2, considering it runs the same OS and has the same screen resolution.
I just can't imagine typing up a ten page report on an iPad.
Not even if you got a keyboard for it?

Except of coarse with Safari.

For the vast majority of computer users the security in the 'cloud' is better than what they have at home.
Is there any video of someone actually using the Xoom? So far the only video I've found is someone using it's video player.
They're so downtrodden with their wight collar jobs, SUV's, houses, swimming pools, and health care.
Apple re-wrote the built in apps to take advantage of the increased screen size. Android won't do that until Honeycomb comes out.
Maybe Apple is looking into ways to use the iPad to receive payments.
Using a credit or debit card actually costs a similar amount of money. The cost is just hidden from you because the vendor normally pays the fee. Running a money distribution system costs money. Either you are paying for it directly or they are finding ways to make you pay for it indirectly.
Either that or they care so little about the suicide bombers that they didn't bother doing the extra work to prevent this.

Do you have examples of Apple lying about their products?
