Kangadrool Supersonic August 13, 2012 Share August 13, 2012 i am definitely waiting for microsoft surface tablet to be released before deciding whether to get a nexus or ipad or surface. If you're looking at price, don't think M$ surface will be much cheaper than iPad. In fact, I think it may cost about the same price or even higher than iPad. On limitations, guess will be like iPhone versus Windows phone 7.5, very much limited, may be slightly better than iPad. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kax2 Neutral Newbie August 14, 2012 Share August 14, 2012 War of attrition refers to a price war. What Google is doing is to introduce a fighter brand. It's objective is simple to capture higher market share either by break even or being subsidise by another brand/ model. This is consistent with android licensefree model.

Read my exchange with Jchuacl and then tell me again whether i was wrong in stating that Jchuacl's position favours/endorses/slants towards a war of attrition. Note that this WASN'T my position to begin with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

QQDreamer 4th Gear August 18, 2012 Share August 18, 2012 Now there is Ainol Novo 7 flame which is better than the elf 2 ,Aurora II. have placed a order and waiting for it to come. Have done the pre order. Specs wise is way better than the previous 2 models. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happily1986 5th Gear August 18, 2012 Share August 18, 2012 (edited) so which one did u get ? I reviewed the specs, the user experiences and i decided that the 远道 Window N90 (9.7") is a better buy. However, i have a source stating that Allwinner, Rockship and possibly Amlogic are readying mass production of their new quadcore SoC. If you look at the sellers' recent price slashes of the dual core SoC tablets, it make sense. Why else would they want to slash from 1299 RMB to about 999 RMB but to clear stocks? Therefore i am waiting for mid September for things to settle. All of the China tablets are using SoC from either Allwinner, Rockchip or Amlogic. Do note and beware of the term dualcore and quadcore. By definition, all SoC are multicore BUT only one of those cores is the main logic processing core. The rest of the cores are either the secondary processing core used for idle standby, modem (controlling connectivity) etc. Only the true dualcore or quadcore have two or four processing cores.
