Neofonie is going to be releasing what I would consider the iPad killer. Here are the features the WePad has over the iPad: 1. Pretty much everything the iPad has 2. Faster processor 3. Multitasking (this is one of my beefs with the iPad) 4. Flash/Adobe Air support 5. Webcam 6. 2 x USB integrated 7. SIM Card Slot And it’s based on Google Android, so you get the Android Marketplace. What more do you need? One caveat though. The battery may not boast the same length of time as the iPad and may be a little heavier, but this has way more functionality. I’m willing to sacrifice that for more functions. And apparently, they’re going to be marketing this to the older generation (larger screen). I think I’ll be waiting before I line up for the iPad and see what the WePad has in store. Here’s more on the specs as specified in their Factsheet. | Technologie | WePad | iPad |
