My pictures automatically push. I download an app or a song and it's in shows up on all of my devices. I'm not aware of other products that can do that.
Quality comes with a price. One only needs to look at the Mac book air competition to see the crap that others produce at the same price.
There's no unified ecosystem by another manufacturer, but there are ways to do what you're talking about. Dropbox lets you autoload photos, for instance. You can buy music via Amazon cloud player that's accessible across devices. You can share Android apps across devices. And so on.
To say that another tablet will "never" offer similar features is laughable. Tech evolves quickly, and "never" is infinite.
It's true that Apple makes it convenient to own all its devices and share your content, but many consumers don't want to do everything Apple's way, or to buy all of Apple's devices.
There also are things that iPad can't do, which other tablets allow. It comes down to needs and preferences, which is why having more competition is good for consumers. Even if you love Apple, you're better off with competition, because it adds pressure for improvement.
Yeah ! It size was of desk but It was registered as "big computer tablet" In Its patent. At that time It sounds crazy to make Tablet computers, people were satisfied by their laptops only and especially to make a desk size tablet doesn't make a sense as It Is difficult to carry ever where.

Ok, now I understand.
Heh, only Microsoft would call a desk a tablet. I'm sure someone in their marketing department thought that associating a desk sized gee-wiz product with their PC tablets would help sell them both.
Or maybe the person who wrote the patent meant table, and the spellchecker helped him out.
Yes, "big computer table" sounds about right.

I guess their biggest problem was that desktop has already been done.......deskbottom sounds, well, not quite as attractive! They could have tried with tableit?

Not at all. I used to hang out at a couple Callahan's Crosstime Salon forums (based on the Spider Robinson novels). They had pun contests. Now there you could find some epic puns.

Yeah ! There are many organizations in the world working for project which can replace our computers, tablets and they are reinventing computers. As per the rumors MIT labs is working on different surfaces which can be used as tablets.
