There are certain questions you have to ask before providing a service or purchasing a product:
1. What is the purpose?
2. What are your needs?
3. Will this be a solution?
I have an iPhone and love it so I assumed I would buy the iPad but it is my nature to do my due diligence especially when spending so much money.
Purpose: I needed a more portable and lighter computer to take with me when meeting with clients.
Needs:
1. I design websites, many with flash and needed a tablet with the capability to view these sites when working with clients.
2. I needed a tablet that I could use to work on some of my projects when away from my office.
Solution: The Motorola Xoom- it satisfies all of my needs.
The Motorola Xoom is the same size, is just as light, has the same battery life and is in the same price range. I was impressed with both tablets but the Xoom was the best solution for me.
What are your needs?
Will you buy the iPad or the Motorola Xoom?
Here's a great video comparison by David Pogue.
