If only the design of Nexus 10 device hadn't got 'samsunged' too ;)

Ok, Samsung has 2 options if it wants to sell tablets in US:

1] Either make it a rectangular slab and get sued by Apple. If Surface/ Infinity was made by Samsung, Apple would still sue. (Hypothetically) 95% chances that Koh would also ban the device again.

2] They have to substantially make the device un-Apple. The chose this route. With marketing/supply chain muscle that they have they can sell a decent number of N10 irrespective of the design. Everybody said the same about GS3 design. They ended up selling 20million within 100 days. Not bad for a phone with the "worst-possible-design".

But to be honest I'd take substance/cost over style for a tablet. I have a cellular 32gb ipad 3. But at the time of purchase or you could say until now there was no other option. You can understand why Apple updated their ipad so quick now.

Google is an ad company. They only want you to use their search engine, their market, their voice search, translation, etc... So they are selling at cost.

But to be honest, Nexus prices are UNBELIEVABLE! Apple is wormed.

Not only are Nexus prices cheap but Apple has always charged a very high premium for their devices. I've always wanted a Mac but I can never justify the price vs comparable PC's or building my own...
