I played with my brother's Galaxy tab and thought it was pretty neat.
Then I went out and bought my ipad!

Memory expansion is a non issue to you? I would think everyone would want to have the option available to add extra space for cheap. With a proper SD port, you could add 32GB of memory for $50.

Let's see... That turns out to $1.56/GB.
I installed a 1TB NAS on my network, that comes down to... $0.15/GB. All my computers have direct access to it's contents.
But keep in mind that the main reason behind space limitation is that indirectly it postpones quick file sharing ie. piracy acts (in Apples view )and second it gives reasons to buy into cloud storage.

.. a USB-powered external hard drive and stream from that, another thing the iPad won't let us do.
The downside to that "true" multitasking is noticeable speed loss and additional battery drain, which is (from what I've been reading) why various tech site editors have suggested the reasoning for Apple's long delay to implementing multitasking until recently and why it is is done in the manner we experience on our iPads running 4.2 (also to greatly reduce apps crashing and for faster opening and closing of applications). Now I am no app developer myself, nor have I read anything official on this from Apple, however, from the techies analyzing the why's and why nots of Apple's iOS, this seems to make logical sense to me.
What are your thoughts on this? (sorry if this goes off topic for a second)
