The SK-2008 also didn't have 8GB of internal storage so a memory card was required to have any music. Plus, why would you want them to include a 512MB card? When I got my Sidekick, that card went immediately into storage and will never be used, just way too small.

On a serious note, i have used both but ultimatley they both have their strengths and weaknesses. For me one of the biggest things android has is Flash, having an iPhone searching the web can be a very frustrating experience - same applies to the iPad.
They are both brilliant gadgets i think it just depends what you want to use it for.

So my opinion (and just my opinion) the Transformer would suit you well. With the widgets to enhance twitter and facebook and the browser having flash you would be sorted.
Although the system is not to the same refinement as the Ipad yet, ie you may get the odd fc but Android is only going to improve with time and will eventually overtake ios (in my opinion)
Thats my opinon anyways. (Did i already say that?)

Funny, I just shipped out my iPad 2 this morning and I'm a huge Apple guy.
Two biggest things for me were the higher resolution and the expandability... (microsd, dock, usb ports, sd card slot....)
I'll re-evaluate iPad when the higher resolution screen comes out but I doubt they will ever include a memory card slot. (Hope I'm wrong.)
However, my Transformer isn't completely safe either! He's lucky the Samsung doesn't have a memory card slot or usb.
I love Apple too but I've been using my sgs2 and android and I love all the customisation.
Do you miss the iPad?

@Guitarfreak26
Well, I just shipped it this morning but I haven't really used it much since I got the Transformer.
I wish there was a way to sync my Yahoo calendar to the nice Honeycomb calendaring app, but other than that, not really.
I mean, there are plenty of cool things on the iPad but they were things I thought I'd use but never did.
(iTunes? Nope, use my iPhone or Nano. Airplay, never use it. Games? Keep buying them on sale but hardly ever play them. I'd trade all of that stuff for a microsd slot and hdmi out without adapters... And I did! )
Where did you sell? Ebay?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
No, an excellent board I frequent named Ars Technica.
eBay has gone to hell.... Buyer traffic seems way down and the fees are out of hand.
(Especially nice when eBay takes its pound of flesh and then their company PayPal takes ANOTHER big chunk.)
I agree about ebay....
Do you find yourself using the dock much?
I think i found out about the ipads usefulness when i went a convention last weekend, i tried to find a website where i could watch a few episodes of Monk and nothing would work because of no flash!!
No, I don't use the dock too much... Mostly as a charging station. But then again I haven't been on any trips since I got it.
However, when I do use it I like it quite a bit. Nice having the extra battery, extra SD card storage, a decent keyboard and a very nice trackpad.
Yeah, I didn't think Flash would add that much but then I started using sites that require it and would find it hard to go back. And I especially don't want to go back to the lower resolution.
The form factor... I don't know. I like both. The iPad's shape is good for books and magazines, and the Transformer's is good for internet and movies. (And pretty much everything else.)
Thatll be amazing when 3.1 is out and supports the camera plug in etc...

Hello dudes, I wanna say that I LOVE my phone, but in the same I think it's time for an upgrade so I am "hunting" for a new phone, and I have no clue what to get! I want an upgraded inspire lol...hehe Inspire 2nd gen but...it is not possible. So I am asking u guys: What should I get!? I am am outside of US, so I cannot get a contract with any carrier, that why I have to use ebay...but like I said...dno what to get!!! Any ideas!!?!?!?!
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda app-developers app
There is a thread for this very issue. My question would be what about the Inspire do you think needs to upgraded? Faster processor, bigger screen, better camera?
For my next device, I want a faster processor, more ram, more storage, a front facing camera and a bigger screen without giving up anything that the Inspire provides. I haven't found it yet. I like the sexy heavy duty construction, this phone makes Samsungs feel like toys. The HOX has a higher end feel than the Sammies, but has no sd slot. Not interested in iOS or Windows. I have high hopes for the next round of Nexus devices but have to wait until there is more than just rumor to know if that's where I go next.
It's going to be about what you need, want and can afford. Without know more about that, I cannot make a recommendation.
Now I'm in a Pickle

I can understand that, but I've actually already filled up my 32gb gs3. Even still 16gb isn't bad and I personally don't care too much about a non removable battery. However, the dna's battery sounds relatively small for the high spec guts it has plus that 1080 lcd.
That's also not to mention how bleak the prospect of development seems. Not to bash it, but the gs3 still has some pros

I'm already suffering the issues of low memory with my 16GB of space. Downloaded Need for Speed Most Wanted and that took a large chunk of space. already have other games that are taking up 7GB of space alone. then god forbid if i want to download some lossless songs from Spotify. thats almost 400MB an album. I can't put that on the SD card, unless i'm missing something in the way spotify saves music.
So Yes. I do need to carry that much info on my phone.

In a word, yes. All of my music is FLAC encoded; my 32GB S3 is totally full, and the 32GB MicroSD I have in it has about 3GB left, and that's just from about 50-100 albums. Honestly, I'd love a 128GB MicroSD right now... plus where I am 3G is unusable (40KB/s down D: ) and thus streaming makes absolutely no sense for me. No SD card slot makes any phone a no-buy for me.

Its not 16gb its really
11gb useable storage.
I just cant live with that.
GOOGLE and LG did the same thing with the Nexus 4
Conspiracy time: why put so little storage?
Maybe to force people to use PAY cloud based storage like Drive and backup assistant.
Dont forget the data charges store and access those GB of cloud data.
Games nowdays can be over a gig and I have 6gb+ of music. Not everyone wants to use the cloud to stream music and movies. Not only does it kill your battery but if you are in a bad area for signal you are SOTL. I also always have some movies on my phone for my 3 year old when we go out to dinner it keeps her calm. I have a 32gb gs3 and a 64gb card I don't have to worry about space on my phone.

I should have added this: I wish phone makers would move away from SD card slots, however, give higher internal storage options.
Like I said before, I personally have no use for large storage space because I have my laptop for that. Plus my car has a built in hard drive for music and that's really the only time I listen to music. I can see how other users fill up fast, though. 128GB GS4, anyone? Lol

Got it for the stylus capabilities. At first it was used as a web and media device (via Allshare Cast Dongle) now though it has pretty much replaced my laptop. I use it for writing, drawing, designing, basically 90% of what I used my laptop and PC for.
People always say about tablets that they are only good for internet and social networking. Maybe because they have only used iPad and other non stylus tablets. Use a Note and spend some time with the stylus, learning what you can do, allowing time to adapt to a new way of doing things and you will find the beauty of this tablet. Be warned though, it will ruin every other device you own and use that doesn't have a stylus input.
A perfect example. You happen across an article online containing a small snippet of info you really want to keep and share with friends. On laptop/PC you need to save the web address or highlight the relevant sections and cut and paste then send as email either as an attachment or web link. On a tablet? Actually not sure how you would do it without tearing every last hair from your head. On the note, click on the stylus draw round the article and then send to friend. It also saves to clipboard.
Need to annotate something for future reference, not a clue how to do it on PC without specific software, on other tablets not sure it can be done easily, on the note one click and you are writing on the screen.
Need to take some handwritten notes, no problem. Some calculations etc etc.
I'll stop now cause this is starting to sound like a sales pitch on behalf of Samsung and I'm not being paid to sell it. All I would say is delve into what the device can do for you before writing it off. There may be a learning curve as far as the stylus goes (I still find things I didn't know it could do even now) but that is why you bought this device over the competition.
I use mine to Web surf and play games while on the can

I've seen that a couple of years ago but with an Ipad.
