Seriously? The iPad2 does have its flaws, but we should at least be accurate about its flaws. (note: I am buying an iPad2)

Flash can be added via Frash last time I checked, or using the Skyfire browser. Though I do agree that no flash is a pain.

There's several alternative browsers that do tabbing. No different then say microB on the N900 versus Fennec or Opera.

Agreed on the widgets. But there are shortcuts, they're just essentially all the application icons.

No USB or SD card. I believe there's a hardware plugin for that. But you do have to pay for it. Same with the HDMI out now.

Agreed on the lower res screen and same for 4G.

They do have a dedicated Google Maps and Youtube application provided by Google.. It's just not the same Google Maps you get on Android (which is disappointing, but oh well that's why you get an Android smartphone ).
