I don't get it... why does one have to be better than the other? Why do we feel compelled to defend our favorite mobile OS/device?
iOS and its devices are great products. Android and its devices are great products as well. And the reason they are both good, is because of each other. They both add features, stability, and competitive prices because of each other.
So Android fans, you should be happy about the iPad 2 and the fact that it's cheap! Cheaper than the Xoom at least. Guess what Motorola will now have to do, as well as Samsung and the Galaxy... drop prices!
The same with Apple fans! If the Android wasn't around to keep Apple on their toes, do you really think we'd even be talking about the iPhone 4, iOS 4, or even the iPad?
I don't get these arguments... why one has to be better than the other. Pick your favorite, and root for the other at the same time. As long as the other keeps spitting out upgrades and dropping prices, your favorite will do the same!
