Besides, you're on maemo.org. We certainly know that "other tablets can't even do half of what this can" is not true. |
Re: Will the tablet world change now?
There's promise of great improvements with regards to battery life in the new Haswell ULX that's due for launch next month.
So if they release a Surface Pro II, you might get your wish. |
Re: Will the tablet world change now?
Anyone bought the new Surface pro 2?

Re: Will the tablet world change now?
Two new tablets will be announced today.
In the red corner: the underdog Lumia 2520. And in the blue corner: The current champion: iPad 5. live stream...from apple event: http://www.ustream.tv/ltktv Live with some real major apple fans...boys :D I would now call it Apple iPound, but the real name is called iPad Air. |
Re: Will the tablet world change now?
Nokia 2520 runs Windows 8.1 RT. iPad Air runs iOS 7. One of those has a bigger set of developers than the other and one has been panned in the first iteration of its release.
Sadly, Nokia chose the Windows RT path. Just like the WP8 (limited manufacturers), they're ultimately the only manufacturer (other than Microsoft) that's actively producing a Windows RT product. Simply stated, they're not going to sell a lot of those. Having LTE, a very nice screen and a snappy Qualcomm chipset isn't going to help them out. And I say that with a Surface 2 in my own house. I just don't see it being a commercial success. iPad Air, silly name, but falls right into scope with their existing line - Mac Book Pro, Mac Book Air, Mac Mini, Mac Pro, iPad Air, iPad Mini... coherent and not 4 random numbers that mean nothing to me because I'm just not counting any longer. iPad Air and iPad Mini wins over Microsoft Surface 2/2 Pro and Nokia 2520... hands down. |

Re: Will the tablet world change now?
Let's say you visiting a website on your Ipad mini. There is a video stream that you like to see or Atleast listen to. But when you are switching tab to TMO to see what the great and powerful dave999 has written the sound disappears. How do you solve that on Ipad mini?
How can windows be worse than That... |

Just like Android (non-windowed instanced videos) and just like unpinned Windows 8.1 (RT and Pro) on a Surface. Once you pin a streaming video instance and browse in the same screen; you're golden. I can stream and read your "brilliance" without having to lose either of them. But... that's already known. Quote:

Re: Will the tablet world change now?
I know me too... That's why the iPad is so 90s even if it was announced today:D
Did I mention it came with 3 GB. Btw. Android experimenting with all application in windows. That would mean that you will soon be able to run 10 apps per screen if you like. Similar to note but build into android. If you could save the coordinates like poker tables it would be awesome. Or even send links and screen settings to open image ,mail and video at receaver screen. Gerbick, windows growing slowly...even if we want it or not. |

One of the things that Apple has done well, is that they aren't adding so much to the primary UX that its disrupting their own ethos. Amongst companng them and everyone else, their not-quite-multasking UX has meant they concentrate on opimizing touch response time, speed of screen refreshes, and other small details that really just mean "its not so powerful but dang is it smooth." They aren't running the specs game exactly. And at the same time they are. They are basically saying that they can make a cleaner experience with their cards than you can with yours. And to that, they are #winning. MS is learning that aspect of things, and to some degree working towards the same aims. But, in doing so, they are losing some of their inherent advantages. They do multi-tasking well on these new tablets, but that's not translating to anything more than "its just as powerful as a laptop." They can't/won't do that on their phones, even though that's where the UI would shine (gesture up/down to search/open new app and switch between - seriously easy transition given WP's UI direction). Jolla's UX misses on this, as does FirefoxOS, and a few other shells out there. Its not about the shiny, nor the features. Its paying attention to the details that will only matter in the end as something consumers will just "feel" as better. Even when they don't have the words to say "yea, that looks cool, but it feels so complicated." - person looking at the quoted screenshot but responding based on gut, not on tech knowledge. |
