HW3: Hardware specification, I choose iPad and compare with other tablets.

Apple iPad (3G model) OS: iOS4 CPU: A4 Clock speed: 1GHz Bus speed: Unknown Cache size: L1 cache contains 64KB (32KB for instruction and 32KB for data), L2 cache contains 640KB Storage: Flash memory 16 32 64GB

WeTab (3G model) OS: Linux CPU: Intel Atom N450 Clock speed: 1.66GHz Bus speed: Unknown (Intel Atom's Bus Speed is at the range of 400 MHz to 667 MHz) Cache size: L2 512 KB Storage: Flash memory of 16 or 32 GB (Can expand another 32GB by using SDHC Card)

Samsung Galaxy Tab OS: Android 2.2(Codename: Froyo) CPU: ARM Cortex A8 processor Clock speed: 1GHz Bus speed: Unknown Cache size: L2 512 KB Storage: Flash memory of 16 or 32 GB (Can expand another 32GB by using SDHC Card)

Conclusion: Tablet is not a new technology these 3 tablets have different pros and cons. Apple iPad is the snappiest because the OS and not many applications can run on the background which it can help to off load the ram. One of the cons that make iPad unpopular among the users is it has to sync with iTune only which it's not very user friendly, it would be real nice if we can perform drag and drop to transfer file into the device. WeTab on the other hand comes with more powerful CPU and an open source OS which could bring the new applications for the device. The only thing that make the WeTab unique from other tablets in the market is its extension ports. It comes with the USB ports and HDMI port which is a new technology for the tablet. However, the battery is not long comparing to iPad and Galaxy Tab The only thing that I choose Galaxy Tab to compare with the other 2 tablets is its OS. I have to mention that Galaxy Tab is not 100% tablet because it can be a phone but other than that it pretty much like iPad but use different OS and has smaller screen.

If I have to choose one among these 3, I'll go for iPad. I don't see the necessity by having USB or HDMI ports because tablet is not a computer and it suited for lighty use. I don't choose Samsung because the OS and number of applications. iOS is one of the snappiest mobile OS in the market and there are 100,000+ of application available for iPad even though the android market is expanding over 2 years, the bottle neck is still; the OS.
