Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 hands down.

I want to love the iPad so much you have no idea. I love Apple's design and feel but I abhor their business practices. I mean, really in this day and age? F*ck proprietary connections. Give me USB, SD cards, shit that I can put in any device and connect anywhere.

The Transformer has the best dock/keyboard, 2 usb ports and microSD slot, Honeycomb, 10 finger multi-touch. The trifecta of tablets right now.

Camera is also solid, price is reasonable, thickness is competitive, design is... well its a tablet so it looks like every other tablet on earth, a rectangle.

Don't know if any of you have tried out the Xoom but it's heavy as hell. I think the Xoom was half-baked, the Transformer is what the Xoom should have been.

Galaxy Tab 10.1 is definitely attractive but once again, half-baked for a 2nd gen product.

iPad 2... sigh... if only it had a usb port and expandable storage.

There's a ton of other choices out there but stay away from Win7.

Stick with iPad 2 if you're the type who just uses it for the same stuff everyday and won't need to upgrade ever.

Get the Transformer if you want a bit of future-proofing and a reasonable price so you don't feel bad junking it in a year or two if there's a huge tech-jump.
