First Impressions of the iPad from an Android fanatic

If you don't already know me, let me just preface this by telling you an a staunch Linux user as well as advocate, I prefer my Android phone to my wife's iPhone and after recently giving OSX a full-time shot [...]

So I Pre-ordered an iPad

And God damn did this come as a surprise to most of my peers as I'm pretty adamant about my disgust for most Apple products. One thing that I found interesting was the negative feedback I've gotten from folks concerning [...]
