Whose iPad Life? http://stratechery.com/2013/whose-ipad-life/ … "Life of iPad" is impressive, but it isn't magical.
@marcardar for email, sure. Making music, to pick one example? Not remotely comparable

@monkbent sure, but your scenario was email. Android makes it possible for billions more rather than restricting it to the hands of the rich -
@marcardar@monkbent $50 tablets for the world's poor are a lovely thing, but they're only running "Android" in the loosest sense. -

@marcardar@monkbent $229 - cheaper than an iPad but not to an extent that would open them up to a whole different economic class. -
@marcardar@monkbent The crazy cheap Chinese tablets are world-changing but not in a way that does much for the Android ecosystem. -

@marcardar@monkbent Sorry, are you talking *only* about email? In that case, true, but a tablet just for email is kind of unnecessary. -
