You can read back in the post if you really wanted to know who here was commenting about their favorite tablet without owning any of them.Like who... and why does it matter?
Nothing wrong with owning multiple devices. In my perfect world, I'd own everyone, good or bad.
I love technology.
FTR, I don't think Math meant anything malicious with the meme.
I hear ya, I swear I would own them all if I could think of a legitamte excuse.
I know Math meant no harm. In fact Math later chimed in with an op, and thats really all we ask in here. Have a take...08-20-12 11:04 AM - Pedro, in your opinion do you think every topic which offers comparision between BB and Apple are "Flame Bait"? Im starting to notice a trend here.eh, this thread was flame bait since the its title was written ^^
Even the "IMO" didnt helped.
I've been around only for 2 months and still i can say
"Same old, same old"...
Have fun

If you cant discuss these matters here on Crackberry than where?
BTW, even when you look at reviews from TechBuffalo, etc on youtube, the comments turn into a tablet shout match. It seems this topic has grown organically like the battle of religion which also sparks great debate in any circle. I never thought I would see the day when Tech talk becomes more contraversial than politics.08-20-12 11:30 AM - But it has!
I see the tablet/phone brands fans like the football ones.
You will always support your team, no matter what, even if you lost cause - Thats loyalty(which is good, but sometimes this "blindness" disables peoples from a clean thought and reasoning).
So yes, IMO( of course) this kind of discussions will always escalade to flames and attacking the posters, instead of discussion the specs...
And, for what i've seen, this always happens :
1- "Oh, i bought this device and its very good. I had that device and this one is nothing like thatl
2 - "Why do you say that? What are the facts??"
Etc...
Am i wrong?

I think the main reason is becuase, spec for spec most of these devices are prety evenly matched. So it requires a further level of analysis and debate. even if we could go off specs alne someone will argue Specs arent everything.
I disagree about the sport team analogy. The main reason for my post is to hear op from users who root for more than one team, and who are not biased toward a device. In my opinion this is the only way to seperate those who are cheering for their team and those who are not blind and have a position based on something other than hear say.08-20-12 11:50 AM - Had a PlayBook until I spilled beer on it. Now it won't turn on, so it sits in a drawer..where it already had spent a lot of time. After having owned the device for probably 8 months, the only thing I found it useful for was Treehouse for my kid, and throwing some movies on there for him for flights. The music player was horrible (although the sound was great), internet browsing was inconsistant, and trying to watch Youtube on it was an effort in futility.
My wife owns the iPad, and while i'm not a big Apple fan, it's good at what it does, and for what she needs. I bought a Xoom when they first came out, and returned it the next day, simply because it didn't offer me anything more than my phone could already do, and I simply hate carrying around more hardware than I need to.
I'm eagerly awaiting Microsoft Surface Pro, because this could be a tablet I could actually find some use for. Of course, I won't jump on it without thoroughly investigating it first..but if it lives up to the hype, I'll be all over it.
As for this thread..
08-20-12 11:58 AM - Messiah, hope you're more than one in a million, because that's not what i've seen so far. But of course i'm only here for two months, so there a big chance that i'm wrong. But, so far, that's what it looks...
I also consider myself as a "moderate user", since i recognize the flaws of my device at the same i advocate for the good one's.
Hope that some users don't get banned, because Rim, Apple or Samsung won't be saving them at that moment, and well, these forums are great to gather knowledge about ours, and others devices, that, since tech is always changing, have a lot of probability of being better than ours. We have to be humble to see that i guess(im not talking about you...)
But then again, this is just my opinion, so thats what its worth
