@Skruis, from your comment, I would have to believe
that for some reason, you don't like Apple. The comment " It seems like a bigger bang for your buck unless you have an explicit iOS preference at which point, I'd assume that you've probably already gotten an iPad because you're an Apple fan."
leads me to believe this. If I've misunderstood your comment then I apologize. I was never an Apple fan before my wife bought me an Ipad(1st generation), nor do I own any other Apple device.
However, after owning and using an Ipad, I can see why there are many Apple fans, and yes devoted fans. I do plan on buying a newer Ipad, just not right now, but because I've had a great experience with the one I have, I take it with me everywhere I go.
I do a lot of writing, and esp. when I'm on the road it's just much easier to pull over and grab the Ipad, rather than pull over, move into the passenger seat, get out the laptop, boot up, write what I need, etc, etc.
And for what it's worth, I am a big fan and user of Windows, just recently purchased a new Sony Vaio laptop with Win7. I also believe that no one has an office suite that can compare to MS Office.
However, when I'm writing, I now prefer to do most of my writing with Pages, an Apple program. The great thing with Pages, is that I can export it as a Word doc, if I want to.
Thanks...
