Now that Android is shoving over 200,000 android devices out per day and it has become painfully obvious that the iPhone is destined to become a niche device, similar to what happened to their desktop PCs in the ’80s, history is repeating itself.
Today marks the inauguration of the first announcement of a serious android competitor to the iPad.  Today, Samsung announced the Galaxy Tab and, man, does it look sweet.  Now, don’t get me wrong, the iPad is the type of device I have been waiting years for, but Apple’s militant ability to alienate themselves amongst all of the tech world …

I had the opportunity to runt he iPad through its paces this weekend and it is stunning.  I am sure by this point you have read a ton of reviews on this device so I will spare you the revamp of those ideas here and I will simply offer my first impressions.

A few days ago Apple unleashed the iPad on the world.  After a few days to let the initial awe soak in I found myself underwhelmed.  Not by the device itself, but more, by the reception by the general public.  My phone started ringing off the hook with people asking me one question…”Why do I need this?”  This question seemed to bother me a lot for the first day or two.  I was not sure why I needed it, much less why anyone else would.  I just knew that I had to …
