It is a well known fact that Android apps are vastly inferior to their iOS brethren.
i think vlingo is better on android especially since you can't run 'incar' on ios yet.
but there is that 'not quite there' zone with many android apps.
when apple stops banning whatever they feel like banning in app store and tones down the whole control freak attitude i would go back to iphone (maybe).
I would think Apple fanboys would want porn more seeing more of them can't get girlfriends.
in my case, I have 3 gfs, and 2 of them know about each other, and like, I mean LIKE each other. I have no need for porn. My computer all macs, make me thousands a months a piece. My Macs are only non-productive is when I sit and post against all of the rhetoric on AI made by hyperbolic insults by trolls.
If by 'everyone' you mean you and your lacking ability to comprehend written language, then Yes, 'everyone.'
Now do you have anything constructive/intelligent to add to the topic at hand, or is your mission solely to wage personal attacks?
Yes I meant everyone and that means anyone with proficient English.
Now do you have anything constructive/intelligent to add to the topic at hand, or is your mission solely to prove every iDevices is inferior compared to any other consumer electronic device?
This is great, how about we all sit around and try to justify in our head how these numbers can't be real. Funny how I didn't see anyone doing then when Apple iPad rumors were out without any real numbers or infomation from Apple. The people on this site are amazing.
Where were you? People on this site did question what the sales figures from Apple meant, particularly since Apple has been the groundbreaker/innovator in these new markets with so many naysayers trying to stop the stampede. You might also give us credit for recognizing daft engineering when we see it and questioning the gullibility of consumers to buy it.
600k devices may not match Apple, but its still pretty impressive. Microsoft would probably cream their pants if they could sell 600k Zunes in one month against Apple, so hats off to Samsung.

Hmmm?
I own enough Apple wares to fully understand both their attributes as well as their deficiencies.
Additionally: You might want to read the thread topic again, given that it is worded in a manner that directly compares its sales numbers against those of Samsung's Galaxy Tab (among other underlying things).
No more so than there exsist a solution for the 'fragmentation' that exists for all those early iDevice owners that can't run many of the newer iOS apps.
I think you're trolling but WTF, I'm bored and maybe you're open to reason.
I'm running the latest version of iOS on my 2-and-a-half-year-old iPhone 3G and have yet to find a newer app that doesn't run well on it. My Android phone, barely over a year old at this point, is already stuck at v. 2.1 and has problems even with running apps that came out when it was new.
I suspect you don't actually have intimate, firsthand experience with both platforms. If you did, you'd see clearly that, while there may be fragmentation on both, only one actually suffers to such a degree that it affects user experience and degrades device functionality.
FWIW, Froyo has been out for over six months at this point and it still isn't the predominant version of Android out there.

It will be impressive if it's sustained. Remember, there's always a burst of sales for a device that gets any amount of publicity or hype and the Galaxy has certainly not lacked either of those. If they can continue to sell in those numbers in the coming months, then sure, it will be impressive. Initial sales of a device, especially where there's pent-up geek demand, is almost meaningless.
And yes, that applies to Apple's products too. I don't ever buy into the hype over initial sales. I think that's pointless.

You seriously consider that to be comparable to whatever negligible fragmentation exists amongst iOS devices?
The discussion wasn't about 'degree' of fragmentation, merely that it exists on both platforms... which it certainly does.

android is a f'ed up mess.
anyone buying an android device without putting in a lot of study time into just what you are getting is a fool. new devices with 1.6? its just f****** dumb. i really hope they put the stops on that crap.
but you can walk in off the street, buy an iphone 4 and know next to nothing and be pretty happy with it.

i am amazed that there are 600k idiots out there who would buy this thing. even google says 2.2 is crap for tablets. has to be BS on that number?
600k devices may not match Apple, but its still pretty impressive. Microsoft would probably cream their pants if they could sell 600k Zunes in one month against Apple, so hats off to Samsung.
I am wrong? But didnt Apple sell a million in less than month only in North America? w/o 3G? full price, no contracts?
And doesn't everyone remember when the Palm Pre "sold" 300K units, but it was more like 300K units shipped to vendors? Then they promptly went BOGO on the PRE, and even quicker to bankruptcy. So 600K shipped to multiple international vendors sounds like the whole production run shipped to vendors.
Apple SOLD everything they had, and had to cut off the sales off their site. Where were the lines for the Galaxy Tab? I have yet to see one anywhere.

Could simply be that consumers buying Galaxy Tabs are just far less fanatical/cultish than their Cupertino-loving counterparts.
Who Knows... Who Really Cares, because the numbers are solid, and the device is outstanding for those who embrace what it has to offer.
Personally, I don't care if they sold but one, as long as that one was to me, because I absolutely appreciate mine.
I guess I misunderstood when you countered that my statement was entirely untrue when I replied to another poster as to why the moderators have not kicked him off the site.
Ah. Naw, I was just weighing in on my perception of DaHarder in general.

Not justifying, just attempting to explain the #'s -apple always states the number sold is the number sold to end users. Most other companies state sales when they mean shipped to resellers - best buy, etc.
We'll have to wait and see what the actual sales numbers are, but I remain skeptical - ESP. Considering hp's breakthrough tablet sales of 9,000 units.
Comments
who sells the galaxy tab with no additional cost for using the 3g hotspot
Neither Verizon nor T-Mobile charge anything extra to utilize the Galaxy Tab's 3g Mobile Hotspot feature.
It's a very nice 'value added' bit from both carriers - IMO.
One might wonder if the plethora of sanctioned pornography is the so-called "killer app" of Android?
I would think Apple fanboys would want porn more seeing more of them can't get girlfriends.
with .flv running the porn vids, the battery might/not last long enough to be useful. ahem..
So what are you saying that Android users can last longer and iPad users have premature issues?

no the android users running flash would have the premature issues, because iPad users get at least 10 hours running HD video
