ipad vs windows 7 tablet
http://gizmodo.com/5609016/watch-a-windows-7-slate-take-on-the-ipad?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+gizmodo/full+(Gizmodo)

some things look pretty good like browsing speed.

not sure on battery life which may be why it runs so fast (battery hogging power)

the zoom feature seemed really choppy in the browser too.

All in all I hope someone comes out with a good competitor to the ipad to keep pressure on Apple to innovate.

i think the ipad might be the best thing to happen to windows 7 tables... tablets have mostly tried and failed to get into the mainstream market for years... ipad sort of "created' the market in a way...

problem is the same as the "killing" the iphone/ipod category - i'm just not sure anyone will create hardware thats better than the ipad. windows 7 for tablets will probably be much more capable than iOS on ipads (by that i mean you can do more), but i will be shocked if anyone makes hardware thats nearly as good.

windows 7 tablets will probably do little to nothing in the consumer market - ipad will be dominant. it'll be interesting to see if hardware manufacturers wise up and heavily target businesses - where a win7 tablet can/would be much more useful, and much more likely to fit the job better than the ipad.
