We want bigger phones and smaller tablets
The Galaxy S is perfect in it's size for me. I've done so much shit, and I'm kind of upset I didn't adopt Android sooner. I was stuck on Symbian S60 v3 FP2 for the past 2 years! The only thing iOS has right now to its advantage (IMO) is hardware video acceleration, and Honeycomb will be addressing that, so there goes that advantage.
To each their own, and all that. The Galaxy S and the other 7" tabs are too small. I already have a smartphone, and thus, already have a pocket sized computer; I've no need for another.
I'm gonna hold out on the tabs for at least another year and see what comes around.

lol I was talking about my Galaxy S phone, if it exists as a tablet then it's news to me. The point I was making is my phone is big and functional enough where I'm not even thinking about a tablet. So we're pretty much in the agreement about that.

You attach a mouse to it.
I'd be more annoyed if they released a gaming laptop with no touchpad on it. :lol:

Besides being "cool" of course.
Can't say this for iPads really, but for android tablets: installing acv and reading comics, watching movies and stuff on a 7-10" screen while on the train/bus, bringing along for trips when you can't be bothered to bring a laptop, light surfing etc etc.
They do have their uses, which sometimes overlap with those of smartphones, but if they're cheap enough, they're worth it because the larger screen is nicer to look at (especially for comics).
So a cheap android tablet - do try one, at some point.
Fuck the ipads though. The pricing on those is just dumb, and you gotta jailbreak them or whatever or be stuck with whatever wholesome apps apple approves of.

We'll see what happens on March 11 (US) ;).
Why hasn't the ram upgrade (or downgrade) been announced yet?
