Okay, I am compleately undecided as to which o these two phones/computers whatever they are to get. Keep in mind I will be mainly using it to write my thesis, notes etc. I have no idea whta to get, is there someone who has both or has tried them both? Here in Italy there aren't many stores that actually let you try stuff out before purchasing it. So whats better the OS of iphones (the one that ends up in the Ipad) or Android 2.2 (upgradable to 3) on the Samsung? Please don't bother with short answers or things like: 'I don't know'.

considering you are a student for your thesis why choosing a tablet like ipad or samsung one..may be it cna be good and comfortable buy a notebook directly in this way even the writing function on a keyboard and not only on a virtual one can be more comfortable than tablet in geenral!!you should also consider that tablet are really unpowerful as device so just to do simple stuffs but not really profssional ones in my opinion. If i should decide between these 2 i think i will choose the samsung one even if in reality it never convicted me so much!!May be you can wait a bit more and soon will come out the blackberry playbook as regards tablet worlds or even some dell models where there will be enabled a netbook and even a tablet all in one as you like:Inreality these 2 convicted me a bit more than others also because they seemed to be better in configuration.

RIM has introduced "playbook". According to the specs, it seems to be a lot better than both. It seems to have faster processor & higher memory capacity. I'm not sure how soon you need it but I would wait for the blackberry playbook.

I own a iPad it's a beautiful device it just like a laptop if you down load the right apps and etc. Lol. Like pages, and etc. Which is about 3 different ones. Its a awesome device to me it's like a basic laptop that allows you do the things that you do on a normal bases and some work at the same time. It's like a portable laptop or good desktop with a screen. And it's completely touch screen and multi touch and soon to be multi tasking in November. I can't wait for that haha. Now i don't know the samsung pad well I have seen it on there website a few times. I never really mess with an android ozone probably in e future I will and it will help me get a better understanding of what's it's about. Samsung is a awesome brand by the way I have a 65x intel zoom camcorder from them it's a amazing camcorder. There tv are beautiful i would consider them one of the best tv makers haha. Apple is really good to they look more into what the customer wants and how to make life simple and less complicated for the customers. Their products are like future looking and just clean and nice and not heavy and very portable and Eco friendly. They make amazing products as well. Personally I would say get the iPad then the samsung pad. But if you are a student and what something that will last I would say get a laptop or a MacBook or do what I'm going to do get a MacBook Pro. They are portable and very nice then maybe get a apple iPad then sync the information back and forth so you can work on your projects and etc on the go. Which is very good and helpful for you. The iPad is beautiful device the screen is bigger too samsung pad is 7" and the iPad is 9.7" but if you have a iPhone and want to try something new then try it the samsung pad I guess
