BTW, ipad 3 is not necessarily the name of the new device.....
As of right now, it is the "New iPad". Apple fanboys are going belly up because Apple's presentation didn't actually name the device.
My mom pre ordered one yesterday (dumbest thing she's ever done btw) so I'll have a true toe to toe with my Prime. First thing I'm gonna ask her to do with it is put a live wallpaper on it, then Widgets and multitasking. That's where we'll start. These dopey fan boys (sorry ma) keep buying the same product year after year.

You didn't have to do this. As others have pointed out, this is a Transformer Prime Forum. I'm sure there are iPad forums out there that would love to have this poll.

How are the owners going to claim their superiority over the owners of the og ipad and ipad2 now!?
I pre-ordered a new iPad. I think any reasonable human being who is not an angst-ridden teen can understand why they sell well. And any reasonable human being can understand why people prefer Android and their tablets, and their ability to customize.
It's such a shame that we get stupid troll posts like the one the OP posted. And the following comments aren't much better.
I preordered one as well, while I love android ( I have a galaxy nexus and gtab 10.1), I don't think the android tablet experience is quite there yet. The iPad has always been smooth as butter, sure it has no lwp or widgets but IMO I can live without those for the time being
Ok wow this Ipad was just announced and sounds like a few upgrades but really, I have played with ipads and to me, they are nothing but oversized ipod touches. They dont have anything that gives it a personal touch to it. I love my prime and more so now that it is still the only quad core cpu tablet on the market.
Apple makes these idevices for the simple person and of course cuz anything with an i front of the name will sell big bucks.
So keep ur ipads, iphones, itouch and iRons and leave us primes alone.
Go talk about it in the Ipad forum with no roms, no tweaks and nothing fun to do with anything section!
I'll admit it, I'm a prime owner and I want the "new ipad". I had an ipad 1 for a year and a half before getting the prime and I must say, as much as I love android on my phone, the tablet experience just isn't on par with the ipad when it comes to the quality and quantity of apps for tablet specific devices. Im sure lots of you will rag on me for saying it but I don't care, I said it, I want the new ipad.

I'm sorry, but sir are you serious, if so are this the best arguments you could come up with?
The camera isn't even tested good, but it would be just as good as the iPhone 4S according to the keynote. Oh, and a 8MP pixel camera doesn't have to be better then a 5MP, I hope you realize that.
Dual core, yes but iOS uses the GPU better then Android does so it has quad core graphics. For iOS this is a better chose then a bad GPU and quad core CPU, while for Android it is opposite.
The Retina display 2048x1536 vs 1280x800 probably isn't a matter for you "because the Prime's screen is fine?".
I will not start about the WiFi, GPS, backlight bleeding issues here from the Prime.
I mean, really I accept it that you love your Prime, but don't talk like it is completely better then the iPad, because it isn't.

As for owners, theyll refer to it as the new ipad or ipad3. But as for apple's branding, I believe they are trying to keep it simple like that of their other product like the macbook air, where the model number will tell consumers which one it is.
If you were a gamer which would you choose? I love android but I play a lot of games on my Evo 3d and Prime (although much limited in games right now) but I just went on youtube and I didnt realize there are a lot of HD quality rpg games on iOS. As much as I hate apple they got us on games.

Yes, no question.
Love the keyboard add-on too.
I really wish they would be smart about the price and go lower than $499.99 though.
seriously considering it. had an ipad2 but sold it once the et4g came out. the transformer prime looks RIDICULOUS
I love my transformer 1 but the prime is everything I wished the TF1 was especially than it's thinner and lighter than the ipad 2, thinner but just a hair heavier than the galaxy tab 10.1. I most likely wont be able to get it for myself until january. Then I plan on buying the tablet first, selling my tf 1 and dock, then buying the dock

Sent From My Evo Killer!!!
It does have nice specs, and it's thin and all that, but I have some reservations. First, it's expensive, especially if you get the keyboard. The quad-core(actually 5 core) Tegra chip sounds good, but until apps are written to specifically take advantage of it, the speed increase won't be as great as it could be. I would have preferred a screen with better than 1280x800, and lived with a dual-core processor.

I won't buy until it has a USB port ON THE TABLET. Bummer because it's close to perfect otherwise.
Better resolution would have been nice.
I'll wait for Samsung to release their next tablet before ever going with an Asus tablet again. I went through 4 TFs before giving up and jumping to the GT10.1. Haven't looked back since. The TF had one of the worst build quality I have seen on an electronic device.
hopefully early next year, so far its the only tablet I've had any interest in.

I have the og transformer, and really want to get the new one, but I can't really justify spending all that money on my college student budget when my og does most of the same. The transformer is an awesome tablet though. For anyone who doesn't have one already I recommend it.
It is especially great for college students who need a proper keyboard to take notes on in class and need the extra battery life so they can stay on campus all day and not worry about getting the coveted spots with outlets to study at.
Maybe if I can sell my og with keyboard for around 400 then I can upgrade.

I'm probably going to do it. I've been holding off on a tablet for years now, and at this point I feel one such as the Prime is more than powerful enough to last me through several years of tantalizing new chipsets. I still use a 1.6ghz dual core laptop from '06. ;-)
I personally don't see the use for tablets if you a Smartphone and a laptop.... tablets don't make calls and can't do a lot of what a laptop can do but to each his/her own. I personally won't be buying one, instead I will wait for quad core phones to hit and then cough up the 500 to upgrade early from my magnificent ET.
I probably won't be picking it up as I have the original TF and dock and hardly get any use out of it to begin with. Shame because the Prime looks amazing. I think a full blown laptop would have better suited my needs.

Xoom Family on sale @ Bestbuy I think its $349
I'd love to get a tablet with Qualcomm's new chips more than anything. Likely holding out here till next yr and get one with it and enjoy lte modem built on the die of the chip and great battery life savings because of such.
If I had to get one now it'd be the prime more likely if cost didn't matter.
Though if cost didn't matter id shell out for Qualcomm's developer tablet that's supposed to.be available in the early spring finally.

If $ is not an issue, prime. I got my wife a kindle fire and for a basic tab it's great for $199
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I know this gets said often, but I would wait until March/April if you can. The main reason is that the iPad 3 should be released and there will probably be a few quad-core Android tablets. So even if you would be happy with a Tegra 2 tablet, those devices will drive the price down on the older models. However, if you don't care and you just want something NOW, then I would get the Prime. Biggest bang for the buck in that it costs $100 less than a comparable iPad 2 and most of the other Tegra 2 tablets out there. (I always laugh when people say it costs the same, but they compare a 32gb Prime against a 16gb whatever)
That's the tablet I'm buying, i can't wait to have my prime

Well, if you want the 7" form factor with stylus support, a Flyer at $299 isn't half bad. From what I understand the handwriting recognition is better than the Lenovo Thinkpad tablet which is more expensive and there aren't really many other games in town to support a stylus like that. So....sure, it's a valid recommendation for a specific audience.
Lately I have seen the Flyer going from $220-$250 at a lot of these Deal A Day/Slickdeal type of sites. Ebay even had a daily special last week for that price, for the Sprint Evo Tablet, no contract required.
Flyer - great for people that take lots of notes ( students?)
Xoom - This is what I have and i haven't had any issues with it. Just that its a bit on the heavy side
Galaxy Tab - Pretty much same as the xoom just that it doesn't have an expansion slot and its much lighter in weight
Prime - This thing is a beast!!
Im biased but for the price and spec's you can't beat the HP Touchpad.
Android or Webos, whichever one you want to run, plus top of the line specs for a dual core tablet. I love it.
Just get this

The Sony tablet s is great if you aren't planning on rooting it. It is by far the best dual core tablet.

But now that they aren't really in stock anywhere I may just wait for the iPad 3. Now I'm really not trying to troll or anything but do you guys think I should wait? Or just tell me I'm being stupid and should come to my senses.

how about you act like an adult and make a decision?
i'm getting really tired of this "living by comittee" lifestyle that people are starting to adopt.
purchasing something as frivalous as a tablet comes down to a very unique (to the purchaser/user) set of critera as to what they should buy and what they consider value for their dollar.
if there were still any hidden mysteries as to what this particular tablet brings (in both the good and bad) to the table, i would be more compassionate towards the question of the OP, but the pros and cons of this tablet have been discussed ad nauseam on this forum, if one cannot make up their mind at this point on their own by reading, then no one can help them.

Which? Tell me. It will really take some time before they are actually available in the stores. And if you want some quality tablet you would not want to go with Acer. Lenovo is overpriced. Samsung, Asus, Apple are the one's who make the best tablets in my eyes.
And no, I don't had any of those WiFi/GPS/BT issue's with my Prime so I also put Asus there because with my tablet it was very solid build, had a good feel etc. etc. Same for the TF101.
I had to return mine to best buy because it was stuck in the ICS rebooting loop. I just ordered another one today from office dept. If ICS and wifi work and there are no screen issues I'm keeping it.

You're asking this...on an Android forum. Seriously, what kind of answers did you expect?
Get the iPad if you want easy to use. I mean real easy to use. If you want to do something and can't, you probably can't. Android, you could find a way, but you'd need to look. I found that Apple is better for people who can single task while Android is better for people who multitask. Doing more than one thing at a time. The iPad 3 will only have better resolution, camera, and maybe a little faster. The Prime is already better (besides resolution) and does so much more. But, you need to learn it. If you dont want to spend time on technology, get the iPad. But once you start going down the easy path, it's hard to get out. I have an iPad for work (my boss bought me one) and it's very boring already. The first day I learned everything I could. Android I learn new things almost everyday. And its been almost 2 years since I've been playing with Android
If you want to do something and can't, you probably can't. Android, you could find a way, but you'd need to look.

Exactly..
I've got an iPad 2, as does my wife. It's perfect for her, but I hate how limiting it is.. I wouldn't ever go back to an iOS device. If I can't even get access to the underlying file system, it's just not going to work for me, I don't care what the specs are.
While I'm sure the ipad 3 will be a great hardware device ios is simply for those users who can live in a very weak and limited multi tasking world. For me its about Android more than the hardware when it comes to the tablet platform.

I would go with Samsung and their Note tablet if you can wait they seem to have their products running pretty good (Galaxy S3) with their hardware and software, and they have good development here for their devices. I wish the Samsung Note Tablet with their CPU and hardware was out when I was deciding what to spend my $650 on.
I would wait before purchasing an Asus tablet again and see if they can fix their I/O performance problems if I were you. The Prime, Nexus 7, TF700, yeah they look nice but looks can be very deceiving as we know (Example= Prime).
IF Asus ever gets the I/O problems fixed then the TF700 or the Nexus 7 could be good choices. I wouldn't buy anything from Asus (Tablets) until you see if they can fix their current issues because if they cant fix the Primes performance they wont fix the TF700 of Nexus 7.
As an owner of the Prime I feel we were basically beta testers for the TF700. I refuse to recommend any Asus tablets after being used as a beta tester they got me once but not going to happen again. The bad part is I had to pay $650 to be beta tester!
Tablets are suppose to be a fun enjoyable experience not as frustrating as its been with the prime, we keep hearing they got an update coming out that's going to fix all the issues, but every time we get an update it does not deliver!

I doubt it. the rear camera was cut out to save on costs. Even without rear camera, its a great deal.
There is a slight chance that down the road, once manufacturing costs drop for this device, they "Might" release a revised version with rear cam. I doubt it though. never say never though

I would go with Samsung and their Note tablet if you can wait they seem to have their products running pretty good (Galaxy S3) with their hardware and software, and they have good development here for their devices.

Thanks for sharing these thoughts..... i do agree with u.... the only thing that i love about this prime atm is becoz of the ROM i got. So lucky enough i happen to bump the ANDROWOOK ROM....

I would wait to see what Samsung is bringing next. If Samsung's next top tier tab comes with a Exynos 5250 it will be far superior to any Tegra powered device. But for $200 a Nexus 7 would be a great buy even if you end iPhone getting a 10" down the road. I bought a GTab 2 7" and think I like the size better than 10".

Yeah, thats what i thought about sizes. 7 is much easier for me. I can use it at almost places im in. I commute everyday by van, and cant get my prime out from my bag, and when taking pics, ridiculous, it's huge. But anyway, its still is useful inside my office....
