Help choosing a tablet

I'm going to finally get a good one today. I bought a crappy 7 incher a while back and it broke in no time.

Shelly got an Iphone. The rest of us have Droidx. She's had it for a month now and we now regret it. Apps cost more. Some of the apps we relied on aren't even available. The only one redeeming quailty about it is the Quickbooks app is a little better. Otherwise the Droids beat it hands down.

That's why I just can't get an IPAD.

I'm between the Motorola XOOM, the Samsung 10.1 tablet or the newer Toshiba.

Has anyone had any experience with these and can offer some insight?

Thanks.
 
All the apps on the iphone are better, take those droids and toss them. Get Ipad, get macbook and throw those viral PC's out the window and pay for quality and save time and money.

Go for the samsung, because the bigger screen will be kinder to your eyes, at your advanced age.
 
I have the iPad, iPhones and a Samsung GalaxyS. I really like the iOS from apple much better.

That said, ANY tablet with WiFi will do what you need IF you have your own cloud. Forget all those apps. Make your own. Work in the cloud and not worry about the device you use to access it. It just has to have decent screen, fluid response from fingers and access wifi readily. None of the apps will do what we need so make your own.

My attorney does. He likes it a lot. I think he would have been happy with any tablet. The thing that I do not like about the Xoom is that the screen is smaller then the rest. That and if you want 4g you need to ship it off for a new radio to be put in, though they might be shipping the 4g Xoom's now.
 
Mike K, how should someone start with 'clouds' and making their own apps?
 
For us computer illeteriates...what do you mean by "cloud'?

Your own personal server. It's now being offered for free. We have had our own for years.

Making your own apps and being able to access info from any place. You cannot loose the info anymore either. Changing phones computers none of this matters. In seconds it's all back on your phone .

Drop box doug is a cloud

Looked at zoom tonight. One thing I didn't like was when backspacing to erase letters you have to tap the backspace each time for a letter. You can't just hold it down and erase the whole line. The others on display u could.

A buddy of mine loves his samsung galaxy.

Got the ASUS eeepad Transformer because it has gorilla glass like my droid x and hdmi out for presentations and a micro sd slot to add more memory.

Also got the keyboard/touchpad attachment that turns it into a laptop if you need to type a lot.

I've got 14 days to figure out if i made the right decision.
