Ranks007: http://macdailynews.com/2012/06/19/google-to-launch-ipad-killer-in-coming-weeks-sources-say/ I would rather wait to see if it worth the hype . . . Blackberry made more noise with BB Playbook |

Fhemmmy: Abi o! Anyway with Android 4.0 ICS the unification of mobile and tab operation on the Android platform should make things easier for Google to launch an ipad killer. |

Lord_Reed: I think their prices will be one of the biggest killer for ipad if they really wanna kill ipad. |

Only a tablet with out-of-this-world features will unseat the iPad. That machine is just superb... even for the retina display alone. |

denzel2009: And there ability to protect it without being compromised |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by Nobody: 3:06pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
Fhemmmy: 4 yrs running... RIM tried and failed, Samsung has tried and failed... who is next? Most would rather spend money on a pricey iPad than buy any other tablet. The same pricing issue was raised as a potential iPhone killer... hmmm |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by Nobody: 3:06pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
denzel2009: Seems to be working quite well. |

davidylan: Chief, BB failed cos they never saw the face chat by apple coming . . they were too relaxed cos of the BB Chat . . . Anyone to have a bite into Apple's ipad and iphone, they will have to do something and at same time reduced the price. Playbook would have done something nice, if not the size of the playbook as well as "NO SIM" . . . |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by Nobody: 3:15pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
Fhemmmy: Dude come on... so face chat is why the iPad beat the BB playbook? What a joke. Most folks who own an iPad barely use the face chat option. the iPhone was already outselling the blackberry well before face chat arrived. |

davidylan: For now it is. Android Tabs running ICS and later will give the ipad a run for its money. Android is the future! |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by Nobody: 3:42pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
Lord_Reed: We said same about the iPhone. we'll see. |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by Fhemmmy: 3:54pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
davidylan: Note my statement, not Ipad as an item, but Apple as an inventor . . . I am not taking anything away from Apple, but if other company put more into their invention, they could make it happen. Look at the design of RIMs, nothing to really take away your breath, nothing to make you wanna make sure you own one, only Africa seems to be BB Crazy, which is good for business still . . . However, BB could bounce back, if they willing to play balls. |

davidylan: That's why I said Apple's marketing is top notch. I use Asus transformer running Android 4.0 aka ICS. If I dock it to the keyboard I get 14hrs usage on batteries which Ipad will not do. It has expandable memory slot for and extra 64gb storage, Ipad doesnt It has hdmi slot to watch flawless hd tv, you have to have apple tv to use ipad Ipad cannot multitask. You have to close one app before using another. I can multitask easily on Asus. If I take pictures on my camera, I only need to slot the sd card into my asus to view it. You have to go through itunes on ipad wtf! These are the few I can remember jare! ***I'm not saying it doesn't work but the hype is too much. If you need to get things done, Ipad is not the best! Fhemmmy: they jailbreak them easily these days. |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by Nobody: 8:07pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
denzel2009: Absolutely agree. |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by LordReed(m): 8:13pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
davidylan: That is already happening. Samsung's Galaxy S series and other members of the Droid army have successfully challenged the iphone. Apple's remain stranglehold is the ipad that is why they are fighting tooth and nail to bring down Samsung's Galaxy Tab. |

Lord_Reed: Sales of the galaxy 10.1 has been stopped in the US for being almost an exact copy of the iPad. |
Re: Google To Launch Ipad Killer In Coming Weeks by LordReed(m): 8:31pm On Jun 27, 2012 |
davidylan: Apple's desperation tactic, trying to stem the tide. |
