I was going to get the iPad for a family member for Christmas…. however, the more research I do, the more it’s starting to look like the Xoom might be better. I’m going to have to lean towards that. Thanks for the comparison and helping with my research!

Michael,

I am not tech savy all I want to know is should I buy a Xoom or IPad2? I have an IPhone 4 not the Droid because I have lots of songs on Itune so what should I buy? Help! Also will I be able to put a flashdrive of my music into a Xoom and download it?

These pads — none of them have the ability to be 1080p. To be 1080p you have to have height of 1080 minimum… these do not, they have 800 max. So the best they’ll ever be is 720 and that goes for both the android and the apple tabs.

I’m not too sure if the people “fighting” over this topic are in a stable mental state. People are defending electronic products and firmware’s as if they were kids of their own. These people have no part in either company other than the fact that they buy their products. How about you stop your stupid little feud and enjoy what you have and stop trying to bring other people down about what they like.

Seriously its not like proving your point over which piece of equipment is better is going to get you laid.

Cheaper price is a load of bollocks. In Europe, the price of a 16GB ipad2 is the same as a 32gb of ipad. So, Jobs is basically trying to make the money from outside the US by actually jacking up the prices. What a dreadful shame !

Being what most might call an “Apple Fanboy” (LOL) I actually enjoyed your letter. I know some people who did that, (Ahem, me when I first got it) and yes, that couldn’t be any more true.

But if you must, there are apps that can enable flash on the iPad 2.

Well when the xoom dies in half the time of the iPad 2 you’ll understand why they don’t use flash, and the iPad do is capable of HDMI out and has mirror playback for gaming even. It’s sleeker and much sexier looking than the xoom, has much better apps being developed for it (garage band, bento, etc) And im even considering using it as my main option for computing.

A larger chart (like the last one) would be really useful.

BTW I’ve seen that iPad2 has HDMI.

The Xoom can play back 1080p pretty easily, as long as it is h264 baseline. There are test videos available that prove this, and I’ve done so.
