    Default Android Tablet/IPad?

    I am considering purchasing a tablet style computer.

    Which has better apps for music, Ipad, or the Android OS tablets?

    My current setup is:

    Traktor 2 Pro
    Ableton Live
    Launchpad
    nanoKontrol
    Akai LPK25
    Ion Discover Dj

    What do want it for? DJing? I would say give it some more time, but if I had to choose it would be the iPad, simply because there's more and better apps on their store. In the future when the tablet market has matured I would buy an android - there will probably be better I/O support (the SDK is better for intergrating other hardware and most android hardware uses USB).

    iPad + TouchOSC = Double Rainbow

    TouchOSC also runs on Android, but I have no clue if they fixed the connectivity issues the app used to have.

    i think the obvious choice is an ipad. just so many apps to choose from. i have and ipad and use it alot. i don't use touch osc because i can trust the wifi connection required. (tpro doesn't like it when my hp lappy has wifi turned on).

    but its tons of fun to play with the korg, moog, and imaschine apps. djay is pretty cool too - just to sit on the couch and goof around.

    that just my opinion

    iPad completely. It's already utilizing core midi into some of its audio apps, and the wifi linking apps like touch osc, touchable, proremote, I could go on forever are amazing.

    I have an Samsung Galaxy 10.1 and have used an Ipad extensively and I think iPad is the choice. Anrdroid is great for web but the ipad has everything else on lockdown.

    So, it sounds like I should get an Android for web stuffs, and an Ipad for music.

    You have some flash enabled browsers for the iPad, but none free. Personally, I don't think flash support is needed as bad as it used to, but that might be just my browsing habits.

    I agree with Padi..I failed to mention that I got my android tab as a gift. If I had to pay, I'd get an ipad hands down. I have a bunch of issues with android 3.1 on my tab, the biggest being applications unexpectedly quitting.
