hey guys welcome to this week's episode of d3 live so today we're going to be talking about the best tablets available right now so a lot of you guys are probably a little bit confused about the other to hear these tablets so there's this is that your manufacturers that for know Wes there's all kinds of really confusing things so what I need to do today explain a little bit about you know the best tablets the pros and cons all that kind of stuff so the first one is pretty much what we've got to start with is the ipad 2 and the ipad 2 of course the original ipad is arguably what really kicked off all these tablets you know nobody really ever use tablets or anything Apple came up with iPad also never buy you know it's just scrambling to get their own version now the ipad 2 i'm just gonna say the straight front is the best tablet across the board right now you know there are several really good tablets that are out right now but most of them don't measure up and as far as the future tablets go we'll have to see about that but as far as if you're just you know a really simple user you don't want to have the crazy stuff you just want a nice tablet that works gets on the internet tricks your email watches movies all that kind of stuff the ipad 2 is going to be the way to go very thin now has two cameras admittedly they're both really pretty bad but it does have cameras and that's better than not having anything at all and it's really nice and thin and it just works that's why i really like the ipad 2 and i really do recommend it if you're you know a very basic user you don't really need to be doing crazy stuff you just want to have something simple young here and all that kind of stuff with however there are other alternatives and some of them actually are better than the ipad depending on who you are so the first one won't start out with is the motorola xoom this is the latest Google tablet in fact it's the first official google tablet that runs the android operating system love you guys might have heard of android it's what runs a lot of phones such as the droid and a wide wide variety of phones and it has now been expanded and tweaked to work on a tablet now the official operating system is called android 3.0 honeycomb and it does work really well it's got a lot of really cool features i'm yours a lot of potential there however one of the major things that kind of hurts the zoom and indeed a lots of other tablets will be running the same software that there is not a whole lot of apps the ipad 2 has hundreds of thousands of apps available whether it's for the iphone which it does run order for the iPad itself however with with the zoom and of course like I said the rest of the Android tablets it can still run other Android apps for the phones but as far as tablet specific apps there are very very few so that's one of the major things another is the price zooms a little bit more expensive and finally what really hurts it my opinion for a lot of people is the fact that it's not fully baked I know that's going to hands down a little bit weird but as far as just the usability the overall polish and everything the zoo is definitely down quite a bit from the ipad so those are the two major tablets that are on sale right now however there are if you're interested maybe waiting and has a couple of months or indeed a couple of weeks I'm there are going to be many many more tablets lots of different choices available someone goes through these a little bit quicker obviously they're not out yet but the first one is the blackberry playbook now I've had a hands out of this earlier this year and we've been hearing a lot about it and this is BlackBerry's tablet and it's got a lot of really cool things going for it so it's got of course of seven inch display which is a little bit smaller than the ipad in the zoom however that does give you some Vantage's as far as it being easier to put you know carrying around all that kind of stuff it's got a really cool operating system really nice smooth and responsive I'm definitely looking forward to taking a look at the playbook which comes out in a little over two weeks so that's definitely want to keep your eye on another a couple of others HP is actually getting into the tablet market with the HP touch head this is again going to be a very unique device it's going to be about the same size as an iPad but the software is really solid runs webos which you guys might have heard of that is on a few phones and it also has been expanded out to work on a tablet this is going to be coming a little bit later in the summer but again definitely want to keep an eye on it it's got a lot of really cool things going for it hey guys that's it for this week's episode of d3
