So I've been looking at different tablets lately, & I'm not sure which I should get. I'm really liking the Galaxy Tab 10.1, mainly because of how thin it is. Is there a tablet coming out sometime this year that I should wait for, rather than what's out now? What tablet do you think is best overall?

I'd say the new galaxy tab. I'll be honest and admit to having an ipad 2. I got it because the app support isn't really there for Android yet. I plan to sell it and get an Android tablet next year when quad core hits the market since Apple products have high resale value.

i was looking at the ipad2 as well, but thought I shouldn't mention it here lol. Do you like it?the only thing that's kinda making me lean towards android is the browser looks so much better. With tabbed browsing, flash etc. But the app support is definality better on iOS. Is the battery life pretty much the same on the galaxy 10.1 & ipad2?

Most if the important apps are available on android for honeycomb. Don't buy a tab based on number if apps, buy it based in what you need it for. chances are most of the apps you need are HC optimized. I also prefer the xoom to any tab out currently.

I'll mainly just use it for browsing forums and such. I'm writing this from a friends ipad2 to see how I like it. Something I've noticed is it checkerboards a lot when scrolling/pinch to zoom. Does the galaxy tab 10.1/xoom do that? Something that plays a large role in my decision is the battery life. How does the galaxy 10.1 battery compare to the iPads?

Ya the NC is definitely the best 7" tab out IMO.

I had looked at the nook actually, I love the price but I'm not to sure 7" would be big enough. Can you easily view twitters full site/forums etc easily without having to zoom any?

Question: will the galaxy 10.1 wifi have cyanogen support?

I dont really have problems reading sites on it. Of course i always browse in landscape mode. Not too sure if it makes much of a difference.

Gah so many choices. I was looking at the viewsonic gtab & it looks like it has decent dev support & specs look similar to the galaxy 10.1, but way cheaper. What would the drawbacks be vs the 2?
