I am a bit surprised by the rise in tablets sale in India. Yesterday, a senior level person in my company just asked me ..."which is better.. Samsung Galaxy tab or IPad? what is the price difference? and I seriously had no idea until that moment :P
Rain of tablets make me curious to know the reasons of it, after all tablets are just an extension of touch phones. At best u can read excels, PowerPoint’s etc, you can also present them. But working on them, creating them is a big hassle. They don’t even have “MS Office” for God’s sake. There is no windows based tab and no MS Office that runs on iOS or Android. http://www.macintouch.com/reviews/ipad/iwork.html check Microsoft Office Compatibility section. You can import MS Office formats at best. Export also doesn't happen in MS Office format. You have to work with iWork formats and it su*ks. MS should come with it’s product for all operating systems… but that has been against the policy of Microsoft, even for PCs. With great delay and when it became inevitable, it made MS Office for Mac OS. Now again the same inevitable situation is coming in mobile operating systems. Windows mobile is a flop OS and nobody wants it. MS Office for mobile does not exist on non-windows operating systems on mobile. I don’t know what Microsoft is up to.
World has changed so much in last 12 months. Almost every leading brand in the technology segment has a tablet out in the market. And tablets are definitely good for browsing.
