Microsoft has finally announced an in-house tablet that might just do what my iPad, despite being a great piece of technology, can’t: bridge the gap between entertainment device, e-reader and business tool.
A while ago, I was looking at a post by the Apple fanboys over at cultofmac where they were knocking Microsoft yet again. What they fail to account for (as do many others among the Apple fanboys for more or less sponsored reasons), is that half a million apps is about 499,988 more than I really need. I own 2 laptops, a desktop gaming rig, a Galaxy S, iPad 2 and iPhone 4. Guess what: on both my iOS devices and the Android phone, I use at most a dozen apps 99.9% of the time. As long as those apps do their job well, I’m fine. Except that they don’t, because they don’t have MS Office and my iOS devices are only fully functional with a jailbreak.
