Transitioning from Samsung won't be so easy. How can Apple just ditch a large scale supplier like Samsung?
It's like requesting 100 bags of grain from a backyard gardener instead of a farmer with large fields. Seriously not easy.

I suspect Apple learned a lesson from the iP5 experience....

You shouldn't rate nexus 7 that high, nexus is a crap and iPad is a real babe here

So you're saying it's better to have a a slower processor, half the RAM, a sub HD display and a grid of apps? Okay buddy

What about the lightning adapter mas11? That changed everything.

Damn forgot about that, now you don't have to worry about which way you plug it in, it has a cool name and the cable is ONLY $30!

Give me a $129 and it'll be just like you bought yourself an iPad mini, only with a better screen.

You know the Surface Pro has Intel Ivy Bridge with Intel HD 4000 Graphic, this thing can run both Crysis 1 & 2. I've tested it and already completed both games. Something that no iPads can do. What you're getting with Surface Pro, is real power in hand. The only thing we need now, is touch optimized control for those games.

And how much will Microsoft charge for this beast? You can't compare to the iPad or other ARM-based tablets without mentioning how much more an Ivy Bridge tablet will cost.
I'm sure Steve Ballmer appreciates you advertising here though.

However much it costs, it's too much. Especially since you can't change the battery. Why doesn't any company make a tablet where the battery is interchangeable? After a couple of years, the battery will die and it'll change from tablet to paperweight.

Wow stereo speakers! That fully justifies the new connector and the old accessories you must throw away.

Every time PA mentions the lighting adapter I die a little. Good luck next time you run out of battery and forgot the adapter at home. Charging adapters should just be universal. I love the fact that Android uses micro usb for charging. Everyone and their mothers have one of those.
