HP touch pad with cyanogen mod blows away 
iPad performance and apps hands down...
You can buy a touch pad for less than  $300 and do android mod for free...
I loved 
iPad until I got touch pad and did mod... blows 
iPad away.. 
May be different when ipad3 hits but right now you can get touch pad online cheap do the mod and get a tablet that  is way better than 
iPad for way less$$$
